I sure know what that's like. My family members think it's funny when I forget what I'm talking about or what things are. My memory is getting worse with each flare up. Good luck and gentle hugs.

But, besides the pain, my foggy brain makes me want to stay home and just avoid people. Wish I could tell you it gets better but that hasn't been the case with me. It helps to have a good support system at home.
