Hello Lorraine12,

Welcome to AFMCG

I can only explain my own experience if that helps, my Fibro fog usually occurs when I start to get mental fatigue from say a long time on the computer working etc. It feels like confusion but you know the thing or word you are thinking about but cannot recall what it was. I must admit I do not have it very often, maybe others will discuss their experiences with you. I would be interested if it is the same as I have described.

Interesting question which I think it worth posting in the Fibromyalgia Action UK community as we are all individuals and may experience it differently. I'll post over there and see what the response is.

Best Wishes

Emma :)

Hello MissMdaisy

I get Fog brain, I cannot say the names of things even though I know what I'm trying to say, names of people are worse i call them anything from Fred, Bill, Arthur till they usually tell me their name, I have laugh about it now. Also loose concentration at times. or seem to go into a sort of day dream. Still got to laugh no good other wise. Still I'm daft anyway but i love a laugh and love a good sense of humour. Well thats my description of what i call fog brain. ella14
