maybe she needs someone to look after.
personally... i wouldn't mention it to them, no.
when neurology can't find an answer the standard thing for them to think is 'well then, it must be psychiatric'. i'd be fairly sure (i'd be almost certain) that it would have been suggested to them that it is psychiatric and that they would have been given psychiatric referral whether they chose to follow it up... or not...
to the best of my knowledge nobody went 'oh it is psychiatric' and was thereby cured. or even helped particularly much.
