FND Awareness Day UK | 25th March 2023 | Sharon’s Story

I was diagnosed with FND in 2020.

I seem to have it severely and its had a huge impact on my life. 11 days ago I had a seizure in the night and since then I’ve had over 70.

I’ve been to hospital twice including resus. I’ve had a clear mri of my brain and numerous blood tests. Anyway long story short I’ve been diagnosed with functional seizures and told there is nothing anyone can do.

I feel like my life has ended overnight. I mainly have them in bed but today have had 6 awake. I’m the most stress free I’ve been in years, so I just can’t see how anxiety is causing them??

Can anyone help me with their own story? I feel so alone.
