Hi,
Anyone here have this disorder? Looking for someone to talk to who has experienced it or is living it now....

My opthamologist had conversion disorder listed as my primary dx for recent vision issues I have been experiancing. However, not sure how good of a "diagnosis" it is, as it was just the diagnostic code listed for the billing company.

But didnt want you not having any replies to your post. When I first saw it on the reciept, I was like "What in the world is conversion disorder?" then immediately looking up a couple websites, I was EXTREMELY irate!!! Thankfully, I called and spoke to my DH, Mother, BFF, and my SIL before talking to the staff at the opthamology group. They convinced me that he (the optho) WASNT saying I was crazy or faking it, but that without more investigation, there was no MEDICAL reason for my symptoms and their severity.

I told my mother, that with my eye situation (my vision went from 20/30 best corrected down to 20/100 best corrected, in less than a year), and now getting this 'diagnosis' of conversion disorder, that I almost feel like I did when I was dealing with all my neurological stuff, and the first NL I went to diagnosed carpal tunnel, which turned out to actually be ACM1 found by another NL. This feeling of 'there's something we're not seeing, but its there'. Ya know?

Wish I could help more!!! Hope ya find the help your looking for sweetie!!

God Bless you and Yours!!!!

If you are talking a convergence disorder of the eyes that means your eyes have a hard time meeting in the middle correctly. In my case if I were to look close at a dot that made me cross my eyes one eye would say ohhh heck with this and decide to look away. Eye exercises and therapy helped it. Does that help?
