Hello @jealge1, Thank you for starting this discussion. I'm pretty sure you are not alone with these symptoms. You mentioned being diagnosed with small fiber neuropathy but didn't share if you are on any pain medications for the neuropathy. One of the common side effects of the neuropathy medications is brain fog type symptoms. Until we wait for others to share their experience here is an article you might find helpful that talks about your questions. @artscaping @jimhd and @jakedduck1 may also have some thoughts on your questions.

Good morning John, and thank you for your response. I am not currently on any meds for my SFN, and my neurologist says that I do have some mild peripheral neuropathy, but mostly autonomic. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. At the moment, we also don't know the cause of my neuropathy, so my fog could be related to an underlying cause as well. Thanks again.
