I’ll try making a thread but from what I currently understand, FND lead researchers claim existing and poorly understood areas of brain injury...
PEM which appears the same as what is called boom and bust in brain injury is categorised as fatigue based even though it includes other symptoms...
In regards to ME, I’ve come across too many cases where clinicians who have spoken out about such things have had their careers ruined. I do...
For informative purposes when discussing ME/CFS, the term “brain fog” should include a description of the collection of symptoms that make up the...
I can think of one case that sounds like FND that I was once told about. I'll try making a post to hear other people's viewpoints.
If a patient isn't paying very close attention to what is happening, then how else can they report symptoms which lead to diagnosis? You can't...
I think what Trish said makes good sense. As unhelpful as GPs can be towards ME patients, it's still a good idea to have a record of anything you...
FND lead researchers also say it can start following physical injury as well. Patients need protection.
Update on some recent similarities I’ve come across. This post is about patients diagnosed with CFS who were treated with Post Concussion...

I think it is a good idea for patients to contribute their voices because we know what to say, what may have been overlooked, etc. Good...
Surgery, including those involving anaesthesia, as the patient underwent, can cause MRI/CT non-visible non-traumatic injuries. The organic...
I'd like to know which organic neurological insults were ruled out.
I wasn't aware that most neurological diseases aren't visible on MRI during the early stages. The symptoms of MS and Parkinson's are likely better...
I once raised the issue of neurologists treating ME as though it is not physical with a ME expert and was told it is common for "neurologists not...
Important for evidence that you actually have cognitive impairment, and it's not you "worrying" you have it, whatever the cause is.
Knowing the biomedical research into ME/CFS, I found the document very disturbing to read.
