Redfox how did you react to your autism diagnosis To me it was a relief but also angry because it should have been diagnosed earli

It's like a advert and promotion for fnd but underneath it lacks any sense and scientific basis

I wonder how much bias there is in diagnosis and how much misdiagnosis because of it.

I agree Sean, I have a invisible disability of autism. I have had big troubles with doctors through the years. Especially one time a neurologist tried to diagnose me with conversion disorder based on my father inlaw passed away. He was so ignorant and wrong and didn't know nothing about autism

The article seems weird 1 why quote something from 100 years ago when science was way behind what it is today. 2 Hysteria seems to be an ignorance of what may come ahead. Many diseases where once considered hysteria have now have a biological basis. 3 fnd/conversion disorder is still ignorance...

I come across this article Goes through the history of FND but basically I think it's a advert really with lots of unproven theories

Looking at all the authors it's the who who of fnd. Since the trial was completely crap and invalid. Does that imply that the complete ideal of fnd and associated treatments are crap and invalid especially from Dr Stone and gang

Reminds me of Watchmen the movie with Rorschach and his continuous changing Rorschach mask

Isn't MS one of the hardest diseases to diagnose in the early stages when mri doesn't pick up any lesions or if you are unlucky lesions that won't be picked up by mri. So fnd is useless if it diagnosis these patients I was reading once on a MS association website in Britain a Man in his 50s had...

Or it could be the bias of the doctor always thinking of it being psychological

The whole MUS ideology is that of cost and time. Fewer tests and ĺimited appointments. The whole cut of points regarding pathology tests could also be examined

fMRI seems to be the fnd researchers main instrument where they can interpret the results any way they like

Merged thread Christina Applegate Recently on the news Christina Applegate from Mariied with Children and other movies has been recently been diagnosed with MS

You forgot to add metabolic and genetic processes can cause neurological problems. Mitochondrial disease is one and the other is lysosomal storage disease such as adrenoleukodystrophy and muscular dystrophy can cause neurological problems

I was trying ro get my foggy brain over your statement So it may take longer for a proper diagnosis if a fnd label is given without proper care and further symptoms develop. Reminds of an actress Selma blair who had to wait 15 years for a proper MS diagnosis. She was having symptoms for years...

Maybe by claiming various poorly understood diseases of neurology into the fnd canp he could ultimately blow up tje entire fnd camp especially if some of these diseases get misdiagnosed and the fnd label doesn't help. Functional overlay is another dubious idea it basically any symptom other than...

I had a quick listen so the patientbwas having very different seizures from the normal and may have never picked up by eeg. Does that mean if certain tests aren't done due to doctor bias or not having knowledge about certain types of uncommon or rare disease that have uncommon symptoms. We can...

There was another case like this reported by Solvasen check woolies library on criticism on conversion disorder. Looks like fnd is useless and neurologists never learn

Who is this author it's sounds more of marketing Informercial piece than a proper scientific explanation

I remember Dave's post. From the 2013 paper there is little evidence that the signs can identify people with fnd. Most of the signs have self fulfilling prophecies.
