ShyAnne’s Story
I am not the same anymore. I can’t concentrate. I lose interest if conversation is long. Must be reminded. People don’t understand because I look fine but my brain doesn’t work now. Double and blurry vision makes it impossible to read, write, drive, computer work. Confusion is overwhelming.
Brain Fog comes and goes. Worse when I am tired. When talking I can see words but can’t remember how to say it so then I forget what I wanted to say. People talk and say a word funny and my brain stays on that word so I don’t hear anything else. Short term memory goes quick. Tomorrow I don’t remember what happened. Brain Fog makes it hard to listen and comprehend. I can’t watch TV anymore due to motion and flashy lights. Makes me nauseated. Same with grocery shopping.
