I have been very sleep deprived recently and therefore been suffering with symptoms. Especially fibro fog and pain in arms.
I recently almost crashed my car and i almost pulled out into a car in car park.
Pretty sure it was because i was ao distracted witg tiredness.
Anyone else found this?

On my really bad days that I have to go out, I know I can’t drive because of the fibro fog. Luckily my husband will drive me to where I need to be.
I have found i get so stiff and very tired if have much to do
I was always the best driver. Really good at maneuverability. But now I have trouble judging distance and need both hands in the wheel. I get so nervous on the expressway. Both my primary & rheumatologist told me not to drive because of the meds I take. Even if I don't take them in the morning, they said they are still in my system so I guess that's why I have issues.
I'm afraid I am going to run a stop sign and pull out in front of someone.
I stopped driving a few months ago due to my hands and wrists being in so much pain but the couple of times that I had to go get my medicine from the pharmacy or if I couldn’t find someone to bring me food and I had to go buy it myself ,Really worried me . The severity of pain and brain fog can interact with anything so for sure it can interact with driving . I wish you luck and a lot of health and happiness 💛
