Hello, Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query. I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through. It seems your fiancee is suffering from conversion disorder along with the bipolar mood disorder. This co-morbidity occurs very frequently. Along with the prozac she will further need intensive psychotherapy. ' Cognitive behavioural therapy and brief psychodynamic psychotherapy are the two options which need to be considered for the treatment in these cases. Hope I am able to answer your concerns. If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you. In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link: bit.ly/dr-srikanth-reddy
