neurosymptoms FND Guide 1.1.6

About the Neurosymptoms FND Guide App:

The Neurosymptoms FND Guide serves as a comprehensive patient's guide to Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). It is the mobile application version of neurosymptoms.org, a website developed by Professor Jon Stone and the team at the University of Edinburgh's Center for Clinical Brain Sciences, renowned as a leading FND research center.

FND, the second most common reason for neurology consultations, remains a prevalent yet often undiagnosed condition characterized by symptoms such as limb weakness, tremors, and seizures. Each individual with FND experiences a unique combination of symptoms.

Utilizing the app:

1. Explore the HOME page for resources on various FND symptoms, including common associated symptoms like pain.
2. Visit the MEDIA page to access introductory videos on FND and additional informative materials.
3. Discover different types of therapies that can aid in managing FND on the TREATMENT page.

Utilize the 'SAVE' icon located in the top right-hand corner to bookmark relevant pages and share them with others. Healthcare professionals can utilize this feature to compile pages for recommendation to their patients.

New additions in this version encompass a FAQ section, specialized pages on Functional Tics, Speech and Language Therapy, and updated information concerning 'Causes.' Gratitude is extended to the collaborative efforts of the FND community for proposing these enhancements.

The website and app will undergo continuous updates. Visitors are encouraged to utilize the FEEDBACK page to provide suggestions for future content additions.

This app was developed with funding from the Scottish Government and in partnership with Pooja Jain and her team at CogniHealth.
