Hello, my name is Sarah Louise and I live on the Isle of Man. I have recently been diagnosed FND I constantly have server lower leg pain, neck pain and struggle with weakness in my arms I currently work full time but I am struggling everyday. There is very limited resources on the Isle of Man so I am struggling to find help and people that have similar issues. I struggle to sleep at night so I’m exhausted all the time my mind goes into over drive at night and I think about all sorts of things. I’m worried about my partner and how this is effecting him as he has no one that understands what he’s going through either. So maybe talking on here will help us both. Thanks for reading my story.

Hi @louise_96 - Welcome to the community. I don't know if the following resource may be of some use to you, but sending just in case. Please see: https://fndhope.org/about-fnd-hope/fnd-hope-uk/I hope the further links there may be helpful. It is a link to those in the UK, but part of this larger international concern for those with FND: https://fndhope.org/ which may also prove helpful.
