Abstract:
Functional neurological symptom disorder (FND), previously known as conversion disorder, is a condition identified by neurological symptoms that cannot be explained by neurological disease or other medical conditions. FND typically presents with speech disturbances, visual disturbances, paralysis, somatic symptoms like myalgia, and chronic fatigue. This case report describes a case of a 44-year-old female, who presented with dysmenorrhea and had undergone total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy and manifested as head titubation which was a conversion reaction. On evaluation, it was revealed that the patient had chronic depression and pain. This case report highlights a rare presentation of FND.
