this is an interesting piece on steroids and the brain, a bit of an eye opener.

Am I getting déjà vu? I am sure we discussed this a few days ago. I remember saying something about wondering if my brain was like Mickey Mouse or did I dream it?

[Nextoneplease in reply to piglette]

it’s a bit worrying, isn’t it? But no, you’re not getting deja vu! I distinctly remember you posting a link to a report in the Daily Telegraph on this subject……I think 😵‍💫😳xx

I have copied some relevant parts and sent them via a message on his phone to my husband. It’s good to have some actual facts about my brain fog . Whether he will be more understanding is another matter.

( Not white matter 😂)

~Thank you for sharing this info mossie - wish we had another alternative @ times especially when I started out @ a low dose 2015 & now more than quadrupled. No end in sight..............

I never cease to continue to pray for a miracle

Thanks for this. It certainly accounts for my behaviour at one time while on Pred: I was bouncing off the walls and felt unable to do anything about my behaviour at the time.

I always prided myself on my ability to remember even the most mundane things, now I’m lucky to remember whether I changed my underwear. Hope my white matter regenerates when I get off pred; looking forward to that study 🤞
