Dealing with brain fog: What helps you?

Good morning @jlo70 Brain fog can be so difficult to deal with and it should slowly clear up. That’s not soon enough, i know. I had brain fog for about a year after i was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Not fun. I included a discussion about brain fog. It says cancer-related, but the symptoms, frustrations, and coping mechanisms are all the same.

I’ll see if there are some members who could join the conversation. @gingerw and @lisman1408

Some of your medications might also be contributing to your brain fog. Have you talked with your doctor about this>

Hi Becky, thanks so much for the reply, and I’ll check out the link you provided. I haven’t yet talked to my doctor about the brain fog, but I do plan to. I suppose the medication could contribute, but I’ve been experiencing it for a year or so, and I’ve only been on a medication since early this past December. I really feel this is attributable to the auto immune disease itself. I do appreciate you seeing if any other members might have some input on this topic.
