Functional Neurological Disorder IS a neurological disorder. That’s why it’s called that 🤓 also the concept of “brain disorder” might serve better here than going back + forth between neuro + psych some more. what informational value do these categories yield for FND? not much
Replying to @MarkLRuffalo
What about the other way around- psychiatric/psychological disorders masquerading as neurological disorder- the so called functional disorders?

👇Peripheral inflammation activates a subset of neurons in insular cortex, whose later reactivation triggers peripheral inflammation. Could similar mechanisms contribute to the onset and maintenance of FND after injury or illness? sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
