You look very young and forgetting things is a part of it. I didn't notice fibro fog until 5 or 6 years ago and thought it was cause I was getting older. But now I pretty sure most of it is because of the fibro and I probably had it before I realized it and people started commenting on it. For me it's not just forgetting (an it's a lot of different forgetting, address, b-days, peoples names, something someone told you, appt. and others) but also not being able to multitask anymore. And some days it's just a fogginess in your mind and you can't seem to think clearly or keep on task. Hope that helps. It's probably a little different for everyone.

I have fibro fog. It frustrates me many times when I am told I repeat myself. Often I can't remember when I have said something to someone. My sweetest son in the world gets frustrated with me when I can't remember things, or I may remember only part of a situation. People unknowingly hurt my feelings when they bring up comments and say things like "That's not what happened, that's not what was said etc. I then feel I have to defend myself and apologize to family and friends that my perception of things are different than the way they see or hear what I have said. I do my best but so many times feel misunderstood. I can't explain why my fibro fog happens it just does. I feel I shouldn't have to explain memory loss and just want friends and family to accept me the way I am. I feel people always want to change the way I express myself to suit their needs.

hi Chelsea, hope all is well as can be. my experience with Brian fog is speech problems i.e inunticularcy can't remember words, problems cognitive function reading and writing, not making sense when I talk and get mixed up with dates etc plus memory problems. although vitamins have improved that issue for me

My fog can be as simple as walking from the living room to the kitchen and forget what I was in the kitchen for. Everyone is different as to what their "fibro fog" can be. I've even had days where I felt hung over and not had any reason to be hung over. It's crazy
