👁🗨 Do you experience headaches, blurry vision, vertigo, or other visual symptoms? Neuro-ophthalmologic disorders affect the intricate relationship between the eyes, optic nerves, & brain.👁️🧠 Studies suggest that there may be a connection between neuro-ophthalmological disorders and people with #MECFS. Many #pwME experience visual symptoms that can include double vision, sensitivity to light (photophobia), eye pain, and problems with visual accommodation and focus. 👀Your eyes could reveal your diagnosis!

🌍🧠 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆! Join us in raising awareness about neurological disorders and promoting brain health globally. Neurological conditions are now the leading cause of disability worldwide, highlighting the urgent need for a comprehensive approach to brain health. The focus this year is on prevention, aligning with WHO initiatives to reduce the impact of these conditions. 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲: - Primary Prevention: Risk assessments, managing risk factors, and monitoring early signs. - Secondary Prevention: Early diagnosis, treatment interventions, and optimizing lifestyle choices. - Health Promotion: Implementing strategies like Life's Essential 8 for stroke prevention. Let's work together to promote brain health and prevent neurological diseases! 💪✨ #WorldBrainDay #BrainHealth #NeurologyAwareness #PreventiveCare #HealthPromotion #GlobalHealth #Wellness #StrokePrevention #DisabilityAwareness #HealthyLiving #SCABPharmacy

World FTD Awareness Week is here. You aren’t alone. We’re in this Together. #EndFTD Frontotemporal degeneration (FTD) is the most common form of brain disorders for people under 60. Not all dementia is Alzheimer’s. FTD differs from Alzheimer’s in three important ways: 1. It has different symptoms. Uncharacteristic personality changes, apathy, and unexplained struggles with decision making, movement, speaking or language comprehension are the most common symptoms. Often people appear physically healthy despite the neurodegeneration. 2. It typically strikes younger. Most FTD cases occur between the ages of 45 and 64, causing a substantially greater impact on work, family, and finances than Alzheimer’s. 3. It is often misdiagnosed. FTD’s estimated U.S. prevalence is around 60,000 cases, and many in the medical community remain unfamiliar with it. FTD is frequently misdiagnosed as Alzheimer’s, depression, Parkinson’s disease, or a psychiatric condition. On average, it currently takes 3.6 years to get an accurate diagnosis. Help us raise awareness by sharing this post with your network!

What causes blurred vision? When you lack sharpness in your vision, it can be a sign of a long-sightedness, short-sightedness or astigmatism. However, it can also be a symptom of more serious eye conditions or neurological disorders. Learn more at https://hubs.ly/Q02j-LS40

Business Development Manager at Magstim | Eastern Region | USA | Passionate About TMS Applications in Neuromodulation and Clinical Medicine | Experienced Endocannabinoid Researcher
Great post by National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) to bring more awareness to functional neurological disorder (FND)! There has been more research studying the possibility of using neuromodulation to treat and further understand the complexities of FND. I have included articles below that discuss the use of TMS and tDCS for treatment of FND. 1. Non-invasive neuromodulation of the right temporoparietal junction using theta-burst stimulation in functional neurological disorder (Buhler et al., 2024). https://lnkd.in/gaTGM7Sp 2. Neurostimulation for the treatment of functional neurological disorder: A systematic review (Gonsalvez et al., 2021) https://lnkd.in/gXpUt-X9 If there are any researchers studying how FND symptoms could be reduced by neuromodulation, please don't hesitate to reach out! Magstim is always open to collaboration opportunities and suggestions from academics, post-doctoral associates, and graduate students. #Neuroscience #TMS #tDCS #FND
Functional neurologic disorder (FND) refers to a neurological condition caused by changes in how brain networks work, rather than changes in the structure of the brain itself. FND can cause multiple symptoms that significantly interfere with how a person functions and copes with daily life.

Nervous system specialist and somatic neuroplasticity expert. Making complex science easy to understand and apply to life.
One thing to note is that early adversity doesn’t have to mean traumatic experiences via our parental systems or home life… When a child or an infant is born with some kind of medical problem or defect or maybe has some form of cancer (leukaemia, for example) and they have to go through numerous medical appointments and surgeries and interventions at a young age, that can (and often will) establish a sense that ‘things are dangerous’, which can still exist as a pervasive undertone into their adult life. (why?) Because they’ve been poked and prodded and even though they might not have been harmed –they’ve been saved – the nervous system, the somatic system at a young age can’t make sense of what’s going on. Therefore, if this trauma is not addressed, it creates a situation where that human being is on ‘hyper alert’ and vigilant. Or, the flipside, the hyper alertness and vigilance hasn’t been able to be maintained and they go into what’s called a shutdown response. 🤓 Want to learn more?
