We’re working toward the same goals and can combine forces in new exciting ways. Huge advances since we began our work in FND and it’s only ramping up. 151

Katie Carey @fndnurse.bsky.social · 09/04/2026After #FNDAwareness, there are common questions among therapists and MDs: What do I say? What should we do during episodes? How do we support school participation and recovery?

Katie Carey @fndnurse.bsky.social · 08/04/2026Providing a new patient packet for those diagnosed with #FND can help providers and families alike. Here is one adapted by the FNDSociety pediatric SIG that gives simple explanations and first steps: canva.link/0k20pyusne3o... Providers can print these out and share as we do at TCH and CHOP. 231

Reposted by Katie CareyFND Portal @fndportal.bsky.social · 23/03/2026A lot of of the angst that many people w FND experience when we first get diagnosed is downstream of doctors’ confusion about the condition. And they’re confused because they weren’t trained and taught about it. Much important work to be done in med schools 292

Reposted by Katie CareyRok Berlot @rokberlot.bsky.social · 07/12/2025Crucially, adverse life events are not universally present in FND and should not form the basis for diagnosis. However, when they are present, the nature of stressors shapes the clinical phenotype and should inform an individualised management approach. 171
