Functional Neurologic Symptoms in Multiple Sclerosis
FNS affected 1 in 7 PwMS in a tertiary outpatient clinic and were associated with a high burden of medical and psychiatric comorbidity, nonmotor symptoms, and greater emergency department use. More research is needed to further characterize and contextualize the clinical occurrence and impact of FNS in PwMS.
