    Hey. Great video and explanation of FND and your symptoms. You have a really good attitude to dealing with your symptoms. I was diagnosed with FND back in 2019. I had an accident on the ice while lining a hockey game and was knocked out and sustained a TBI. That's when the FND symptoms started. When you mentioned the apnea, I didn't know it could be a symptom....but it makes sense. I did a sleep study and learned I had severe sleep apnea, which I believe was the result of my head injury. Thanks for sharing your story. You did an amazing job explaining things in your video. Cheers!

  • @sarahdawson7985
    @sarahdawson7985 5 місяців тому

    I was diagnosed with FND last May and I didn’t really want to accept it as here in the uk hardly any medical staff I’ve ever met have known what it is or how to help me? I’ve found it hinders the treatment and way people here help me if I have symptoms of other illnesses that need treatment and I have been told to chase up psychology services by several nhs medical staff members! Including my neurology consultant initially. I am lucky in that I have an FND specialist neuro dept here in Sheffield and so feel I am understood, but it is scary as not much is understood about this still.. so finding someone on here who explains it as simple neuro wiring dysfunction is helpful to show others that this is real and an actual brain disorder. Just because it doesn’t show on standard scans yet- available in the uk as basic mri only- it is real and is not something I made up! ❤

      My brain stopped sending signals down to my legs. And I have spasticity also. It is very controversial in that topic with Healthcare and me and others. The fact is, is that I'd rather not go to doctors because they're looking from outside my body and only see a body. But they don't know what I feel and deal with daily. And I would want to live a happy life versus go into a doctor's room and ask what's going on with me when I already did that, and got bad results. To hell with knowing what can be or could be. To hell with looking at doctors and think they're people who have the answers and solutions. Because they're the worst patients. No one knows what is and isn't. What can or will be. The best way Ii see it and has worked for me. Accept and move on. You'll be better off.

    I have been a C-4 quadriplegic for almost 18 years. Throughout this time, I've encountered a few pressure sores, and the most crucial lesson I've learned is the importance of promptly addressing any signs of redness before it escalates. Each day, I have my Personal Support Workers (PSWs) take pictures of the areas of my skin prone to breakdown. Living with this condition has brought about a persistent daily anxiety, primarily centered around the fear of developing a pressure sore. Being paralyzed is undeniably challenging, but it is possible to make the best of the situation with the right mindset.
