Hello @purpleturtle. It is great you are going to physical and occupational therapy as two options in addition to other medicinal therapies your doctor has recommended.

You will notice that I have moved your post into an existing discussion on this same topic, which you can find here:
- Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)/Conversion Disorder: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/functional-neurological-disorder/

I did this to better help you connect to past comments as well as members such as @patheflin @bhavit @nrd1 and @jenniferhunter who have all been in the discussion previously.

How long will you give the therapy a go before you will know if it is working for you?

Hello,
I have a question about the physical therapy you are doing Purpleturtle. Is it FMD specific? I recently continued my physical therapy that I've been doing for a year since my spinal fusion. It actually triggers more movement with my FMD. I go in there calm and relaxed and leave with full body movements. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
Wishing you all the best,
Kat
