Hi lady4, first of all I would like to say thanks for your reply,if I'm not being to cheeky could you tell me what FND symptoms you have.I find your post interesting especially when you post about other conditions that can cause similar symptoms as FND.Since being on this website and reading other posts I don't believe that there is such a thing as FND and it's all to do with your subconscious mind., what's your thoughts on that please?🤔

Hi, if you have read all my posts you will see that I don't have FND or CRPS, my teenage son was diagnosed with it June 21/Nov 21. I will list the symptoms below from recollection (although may have missed a few, will need to check back at my diary notes and spreadsheet for Neurologist):Numb Legs

Thigh Spasms

Drop Attacks

Heightened Sensitivity to Light (esp first thing in the morning, daren't open curtains at times)

Heightened Sensitivity to Smells

Mentioned once about feeling air (can't recall exactly on that occasion)

Headaches / Migrane / Tension (feeling if his brain bouncing about from side to side)

After cold and after too flights (feeling of falling suddenly (like in an elevator), going down and screamed initially). Think experienced due to heightened senses and blocked sinuses).

As for do I believe its subconscious and he has little or no control, yes. I tried the distraction technique when legs in spasm and that worked.

Also, on one occasion I managed to assert my Authority and even though his legs started playing up, I said we were expected somewhere (when he wanted to stay home) and stood my ground in a battle of the wills.

Thanks for your reply sorry I remember now that it's your son that's got FND my memory a d concentration is very bad.My brain has been telling me that it's you that's got it because your answer g the posts.I sometimes struggle to take in the simplest of things and feel silly when people have to explain things to me again and again.Thanks for telling me your son's symptoms it must be very depressing for a young person to have FND it sounds as if you do as much as you can to support him.

Thats okay, understandable.When he is fine, he is fine but then not so, a bit of a rollercoaster as you can imagine but symptoms are intermittent and school holidays better.

I reply or post to help others.
