Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, also known as Functional Seizures, are a highly disabling form of Functional Neurological Disorder. Diagnosis may be overlooked when patients present concurrent musculoskeletal/neurological symptoms, therefore detailed characterization of seizures and cautious use of diagnostics are equally important in establishing the diagnosis.
Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, also called Functional Seizures, are a highly disabling form of Functional Neurological Disorder.

Characterization of convulsions and judicious use of diagnostics are equally valuable in establishing the diagnosis.
