Thanks so much, Susan. I have not had any of the symptoms of FND. When my first incident occurred I did not fall either time. I slid out of the bed at the first incident. It then took me 40 minutes to right myself. Once straight I could walk. For the second incident I was seated and slid onto the floor. I could not right myself and had no use of my legs. I stayed on the floor without food or water for almost 3 days. For both incidents I went to the hospital and overnight the symptoms disappeared with the neurologists checking for everything, including myasthenia gravis. Initial diagnosis for the second event in the hospital was a myopathy. My neurologist now predicted a peripheral palsy. Strange that both incidents lasted 3 days. I will look up FND and consult again with my neurologist. Thanks so much, again. Pat

@chrosnip I am looking at the symptoms of FND. One jumped out. “Leg and arm paralysis”.

I’m curious, if it’s palsy why does it last only 3 days?
