I so wish I could go there for treatment. I live in misery with this movement disorder.

Keto, and carnivore help me the most

My FND began 20 years ago with a prescribed medication. At last clinical hypnotherapy is gradually reducing the movements.

I've had FMD for seriously 10+ years. I have a lot of similarities with Rachel actually. Found out I had Lyme, heavy metal toxicity and possibly mold as well though that's never been confirmed. Was given prescriptions for muscle relaxants and anti depressants but one muscle relaxant pill made my muscle movements 100x worse so I never took another and never filled the other prescription. I had some neurological retraining done at a clinic in Minnesota along with other treatments that helped a great deal. Honestly though, the thing that has helped me the most has been cutting out sugar and processed carbs. Doing a keto diet could potentially help a great deal even if you aren't able to get treatments at a clinic. Glad you're doing better Rachel and I hope others find something the helps as well.

I live in MN and am looking for a good place for treatment. Ideally in-home as I'm primarily bed/home bound. Do you have any recommendations? I live near Maple Grove.

I would love to connect with you Rachael. I experience many of the same things you did. It was because of your video that I am going to NW Functional Neurology in a few weeks. How can I connect with you?

[@AandC2206]

Please can you help my mother with the same problem

[@lindamoore1264]

Rachel, I would love to speak with you more about your journey and treatment. I had almost the same thing happened to me in 2019 and I’m still struggling with this movement disorder. I’ve tried just about everything. Is there someway we could connect? Thank you! Linda Moore.

Hello! I have FMD myself. I recommend researching clinical trials. I was enrolled in one at NIH and it helped me figure out how to improve my life.

@@richellemartens9221 What is FMD?

[@richellemartens9221]

Functional movement disorder! Sorry I should have specified but I got help at the national institute of health (in Washington DC). Trials may be able to help you on your journey

[@lindamoore1264]

@@richellemartens9221 I am seriously thinking of doing the program at Northwest Functional Neurology. I've had a tic disorder for 3.5 years now. Where are clinical trials in san diego?

[@stuartburns8657]

Is this essentially FND? Well done on your recovery?

[@BlessedOne686]

Yh. Functional movement disorder is a subset of FND

[@jojofraser6620]

Do they treat Runner’s dystonia??
