If you go to the Petra Fisher Movement website, you will find some coaching on how to get up from the floor, in easy stages.

Probably part of FND I have had since I was aged 51 and from the start I've had numb legs and weakness in my legs iv'e also had to crawl on my knees to get to somewhere to pull myself up if i've got down on the floor.You will probably find that different symptoms can appear at different times, mines started with muscle twitching and involuntary movements I then got chronic pain all over and numb hands and legs, my balance started to go and I started falling about all over the place I also started to get other symptoms and this is all over a period of 9 years.You can also get bowel and bladder problems.I can understand why your always asking questions if what is happening to you is part of FND because we are diagnosed with it and left to get on with it.
