An excellent, richly cited thread on the mechanisms of #FND I still hear people say these patients are just "faking" it, but this is just not true. It requires constant efforts at education to help change these perceptions in healthcare.
David L. Perez MD, MMSc, FAAN, FANPA@DavidLewisPerez

I think often about the TRANSLATION GAP - the ways that state-of-the-art brain science does not enter clinical discourse, practice, & education. MAJOR MISCONCEPTUALIZATIONS of Functional Neurological Disorder by PHYSICIANS point this out. #FND Brain Science: "The Basics". 1/20

Can anyone help Lexie with this question about treatment of visual snow/hallucinations in #FND? @FndPortal @AlanCarson15 @PerezMGHLab @fndhope @FndRecovery @ConnectFnd @wesleytkerr @ZacharyGrinDPT @DrKentris @jonstoneneuro
Lexie@frogs_are_cool

@TomPlender @FNDHopeUK @FndPortal @FndRecovery This is incredibly helpful. I just read it to my FND kid and they said now it finally makes sense. One thing we are stuck on though - how do you get the brain back on track with symptoms of visual hallucinations, or visual snow?

Thank you Prof Stone. I can’t imagine where we would be without your research, interviews and website. Your efforts and support mean so much. Deep respect and gratitude.
Jon Stone@jonstoneneuro

There are few greater professional errors than accusing a patient of faking when they’re suffering. But its still an effective safety blanket for ignorance. Those who change their view open up a horrifying realisation that they have been abusing patients for years
