Functional Gait disorders ("FGD" for the purpose of this #twittorial) are common and disabling, usually accompanied by other symptoms. FGD are challenging for the non #MovDis physician and it can difficult to determine #inconsistencies and #incongruencies during examination.

A good approach is to identify #clinicalSigns to differentiate a #functional vs #organic cause

#Inconsistency is the variability in gait disorder severity over time.
#incongruency involves a combination of symptoms and sins not seen in organic disorders.

1/ CBD & Autism Case

I saw a 10 yo with autism &
anxiety in follow up today after 1 year of CBD. I am compelled to share his significant improvements

He no longer spits, hits,throws things , harms himself or his parents

2/ His #sensitivities have improved enough to go to an amusement park all day without any meltdowns

His #rigidity has improved. His mom can now make an unplanned stop to pick up milk or run an errand without a major outburst
3/ His principal and teachers have upgraded his school attendance from 830-1030am, to 1/2 day, to now attending school full time. Also he no longer runs away

He is socially more comfortable, his mom notes that all the kids at school now say hi when she drops him off.
