Couple Faces MS and FND After Loss of Intimacy
Lian, a woman in the UK, lost her interest in being intimate with her partner.
She also started feeling very tired and had trouble hearing.
After going to the doctor, she found out she has two conditions: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).
MS affects the brain and spinal cord, while FND messes up how the brain talks to the body.
This made it hard for her to feel things like excitement.
Even though it's been tough, her partner has been very supportive, and now she talks about her experience to help others.
Lian Jones, 42, experienced a sudden loss of libido and other physical symptoms.
She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).
Her partner, Adam, initially felt the change was due to lack of love.
Doctors explained the change was neurological, not emotional.
Lian is now raising awareness about MS and its impact on relationships.
