Brain fog during intimate moments

Help! My partner knows of brain fog yet hates when I use it "as an excuse" when he asks, "What was i just saying" when he's telling me sonething intimate/petsonal about himself. I honestly am paying attention, but as soon as he asks that question, my memory goes completely blank! I couldn't even tel...

Brain fog, oops moments🤣

I went to my hospital appointment to see my MS consultant yesterday and we discussed medication side effects and cognitive issues. I take Amitriptyline 50mg at night and he suggested to reduce it or stop taking it as it causes tiredness, cognitive problems. Of course I will be monitored by the doc...

Hello, I am a mom whose son was recently diagnosed with MS. He is 32 years old. Prior to his diagnosis, Jeff, had a few bouts with numbness in his hand and face. His primary MD sent him for an MRI and that is where they discovered the lesions on his brain. It took several more MRI's before he was 100% diagnosed. Jeff had 3 doses of IV Steroids and was finally started on Aubagio pills for his MS. He has an extreme stutter since March of this year. He has difficulties walking, numbness/tingling in his hands and feet, constant headaches and difficulties with his vision. At this point, my son is not willing to join any support groups and he appears so depressed. He had to sell his pool cleaning business, originally he had planned of going back into the restaurant business but due to him being unable to do any prep work with a knife and not able to speak do to his stutter he feels helpless. As a mom I just want him to see his worth and take it one day at a time. That is why I am reaching out to this group to hear your stories and hopefully learn a bit more on how to proceed with this disease, most of all for Jeff, at one point, to reach out and understand that he is not alone in this. Thank you.

Anyone else having a relapse at the moment. I’ve got the worst one I have ever had. It feels as though my SPMS has progressed into PPMS. I see my neurologist in two weeks time ,so I’ll soon find out !

Greetings everyone, I am a 63 year old mom to a 36 year old son diagnosed with MS in May of this year. In July my son lost all his abilities to function in every way. He was in the hospital for three months and now he's in rehab learning to walk, talk, and everything else that this demon disease took from him. We have a long road ahead of us and I have so much to learn about MS I'm terrified but I know that everything is possible with God. In July I was told that my son would never speak or walk again, but now he's speaking clear enough to understand him and walking plus feeding himself. I'm praying for everyone in this community and looking forward to making new friends. God Bless you all.🙏♥️🙏⚘️👌🏻
