MS and post Covid Brain Fog

I have RRMS and recently had Covid. Is there anyone out there (who may deal with MS brain fog as a regular occurrence) suffering the additional brain fog following Covid? I’m finding it very difficult to navigate and have been feeling terribly frustrated. Thanks in advance. Wishing you all well!
