Rory Higgins @roryhigginsphysio.bsky.social · 17/02/2026Classic sensory FND signs (midline splitting of light touch and vibration) were uncommon and had poor diagnostic specificity when compared with stroke. These signs may still hold value as part of the accumulation of evidence in making a diagnosis. Clinical context is important. 110
Rory Higgins @roryhigginsphysio.bsky.social · 17/02/2026Prevalence: Sensory symptoms are extremely common (96% of motor-FND and 67% of stroke). When asked to list symptoms... 70% of motor-FND reported sensory symptoms without prompting. 96% endorsed them after prompting. That’s higher than stroke (31% unprompted, 67% prompted). 120
