I am new here and decided to browse I do not see a support group for FND, I was diagnosed yesterday, and just looking for support. This is not easy! Just wondering if anyone else is going through the samething?

I too have been diagnosed in August of 2022. I am still struggling with understanding it 100%. I have seen multiple Dr's, neurologist, psychologist, and a neuropshycolgist. I am doing CBT currently buy have not had any changes in seizures or balance. Severe headaches and extreme fatigue. Electric shoke feeling along with ice water sensations in legs and arms and the back of my head. I am making an appointment with the Mayo Clinic to possibly get a plan to help lessen this.

Hello @bhill92 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I was actually able to find a discussion that has some new members looking to connect with others on FDN, so you will notice that I have moved your post here:
