Members living with myasthenia gravis (MG) overwhelmingly related to the experience of brain fog, with many sharing that forgetting tasks, losing words, or losing track of time happens daily. Several members offered coping strategies like repeating tasks out loud, writing things down, playing memory games, eating brain-healthy foods, taking fish oil, and pacing energy by tackling demanding tasks in the morning. A recurring theme was finding humor and community in shared struggles, while also noting that MG, aging, medications like Mestinon, and menopause can all play a role.

Sigh brain fog is no fun! It can be embarrassing at times. There are time when it is difficult to even find the right words to express an idea that is a part of your every day routine….

Doctors in Norway did a study and found that brain fog can be caused by gMG. The antibodies that interfere with communication between nerves and muscles, can also interfere with brain communication between cells. Age can also factor too

I found that if can just get a really good night's sleep my brain can reboot for the next day. I also add in menopause 🙄 We just have all the fun
