#FND2023

I signed for everyone with migraine, Mal de Debarquement Syndrome and other rare neurological conditions (there are shed loads of them). I also signed for my gem of a neurologist and for the lovely woman who was featured in the campaign who was diagnosed with FND during a 3 minute conversation with a neurologist in a corridor. She asked him to explain this condition and he told her to 'google it' in what may well count as the best example ever of how *not* to communicate this diagnosis.

hi , I signed this when I did the survey back in 2021 . I do hope others sign . I with the help of my GP fought to get me an appointment with neurology after being hospitalised with suspected stroke and told I would get an appointment in about 6-8 months which my GP thought was unacceptable. After 19 months I was diagnosed with FND, but unfortunately ther has been little or no help . You just have to live with it . I have problems walking having to relearn how to ( mow I just look drunk) also brain fog and word finding this causes my depression to rear it’s head . Please sign it cost nothing and your doing your bit . Thanks Kevin
