The idea that a neurologist would do an 'FND clinic' or that functional neurological disorder (FND) could be a subspecialty of neurology would have been outlandish even 20 years ago but has become a reality in many places around the world. In this personal review, I reflect on 25 years of being a neurologist with an interest in FND, initially as a research fellow and later as a consultant/attending. I review lessons from diagnosis and management in the hope that they may assist other neurologists embarking on a similar career as well as other health professionals whose roles overlap.
即使在 20 年前,神经病学家开设“功能性神经疾病(FND)诊所”,或者功能性神经疾病(FND)可以成为神经病学的一个亚专科,这也是不可思议的,但在世界许多地方,这种情况已经成为现实。在这篇个人述评中,我回顾了 25 年来作为一名对 FND 有兴趣的神经病学家的经历,最初是作为一名研究员,后来是作为顾问/主治医生。我回顾了诊断和管理方面的经验教训,希望它们可以帮助其他从事类似职业的神经病学家以及其他职责与之重叠的卫生专业人员。
