Just know you are not by yourself. I pray that you will have many good days. I find that I try to get so much done on good days that I really pay for it and have a bad day. Hang in there.View Thread


I hate y'all are going through this, but on a positive note, thank you. Thank you for posting what you are going through b/c you sure have made me feel better. I thought I had Dementia. It scared me b/c so many of my family members do have it and Alzheimers. I went to a neurologist and had MRI and EEG and checked out OK, Thank GOD!! I wonder what CAUSES us to do this????? My rheumatologist has not said anything about it. I did bring it up with him, but he sorta dismissed it, saying he had heard of it.
My forgetfulness is getting worse. My family really doesn't understand. It seems like they can understand the pain (mine pain is secondary) and the fatigue (VERY bad) more than the fibro fog. I am teaching p/t and wonder how long I can hold down my job. I HAVE to write everything down I want to remember. I make a mess of stuff...house looks like hoarders b/c of clutter (not really that severe but bad enough that my daughter said something about it.), trying to be secretary of my church's women's group and I can't keep up. It grieves me that I can't do what I think I ought to be doing!!!!!!! Then I get in a give up mode!!!!
I wish you the best.View Thread



Fatigue is my primary problem, pain is second.View Thread
