What the petition asks
I am a Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) sufferer and have been since 2023, however there are people that have suffered far longer than me, and we all feel as if there is absolutely no support from the NHS unless you push for it, and travel miles to find it. It is simply not good enough.
FND sufferers can be kept on long waiting lists with no target dates. We feel there is no communication within the NHS network when a patient wants to seek support outside of their area. FND sufferers just seem to be pushed to the wayside and forgotten, and this needs to change.
We should not just be left to fend for ourselves and it must not continue, we need more, and we need to know when a new pathway will actually be actioned
