Yes, many people with MG experience brain fog and mental fatigue that can create sensations like your head "swimming." This is especially common during flare-ups or when tired. These cognitive symptoms are a recognized part of MG and you're not alone in experiencing them.

The sensation may be related to how MG affects acetylcholine activity in your brain, which impacts learning, memory, and thinking processes. Several MGteam members have shared similar experiences with cognitive symptoms that get better and worse, just like other MG symptoms. It's important to note that mental fatigue can be just as draining as physical fatigue.
