Brain fog

[Fibrofog]

I hate this brain fog/confusion. I just had trouble turning of the tap as forgot what way to turn it.

Plus my legs hurt, and my feet feel like I've been on them for the whole day. And of course I haven't.

I can certainly relate to that. I especially hate it when your talking to someone and completely forget your train of thought and you realise its not coming back anytime soon, so you end up mumbling something and making a quick exit 😯 your not alone x

Thought I was menopausal. Then early dementia. Struggle to find the words..or the right words. Incredibly frustrating. Puts me off wanting to interact with people. Feel it has changed the way I'm viewed as a person. It's frightening. You're not alone. The calmer and more relaxed and rested I am, the less this happens. Easier said than done though! Hope today was a better day for you

I'm going to my aunt and uncle's tomorrow for a couple of nights. And they haven't seen how bad I can get, so I'm a bit nervous.Thank you for you reply nice to know I'm not alone x

I'd feel the same. It's hard enough coming to terms with what's happening with our bodies. Wanting to be as 'normal' and participative and social as others...its a lot of pressure. They are your family & care for you. If you're getting it rough..let them see what youre going through. Don't put yourself under pressure to act like it's OK znd doesn't hurt if it does. It might help them understand. Try and relax and be mindful & enjoy as best you can. Company & support makes me feel a bit better & hopefully will do for you. Post on here & let me know how you get on. Best of luck 👍

Hi Honeydebre,I know were your coming from with the Brian fog. I lost my mobile, I was in the house and because my husband works away and children have left home I'm on my own. But that beside the point yesterday for an hour and a half I looked all over the house for my mobile as my children will ring it to make sure I'm ok and so will my husband and friends. So after an hour and half I was getting quite frustrated about this I sat down and look to the side where I have a little table and there instead of my phone I measure out I have a jug which I measure out the dog food which is a dry mix so I took the jug to put back in the tub that I have the dogs dry food in and there was my mobile phone so so unfortunately my brain seems to be stopping working and I know how you feel when it comes to your feet my legs I just ache all the time muscle ache it is quite frustrating and it's very nice to be able to to see other people and see how they are coping with the condition as well I hope you're feeling a lot better today

Thank you for your message. I lost my phone a little while ago, but luckily I have got an Alexa who I got to ring my phone. Xx

Hi I didn't think of that. I will have to ask Alexa next time I lose it. Forgot it could do that. 😊 xx

The brain fog is so debilitating, when I make a coffee I can't remember if I've put sugar in my cup, I literally forget what ive done a few seconds ago .

[Fibrofog]

It makes you feel as if you are losing your mind! Lol x

I have brain fog, I had a biopsy on Monday, I believe my fibromyalgia is making a return to my system, everything since then I feel like I'm on 25% power, really tired, a big birthday today, but learnt today via various family conversations, we all suffer brain fog, at least today I reached that age where I don't need to make any excuses for it anymore "he's reached that age!"🙄🥳
