Lately I have had brain fog

Day 726.

What’s the word again?

What do you call it when?

What was I talking about again?

What’s that person’s name again?

I know brain fog is a symptom of sarcoidosis.

At the moment I am experiencing a significant amount of brain fog. On a daily basis I am forgetting things. Things I am meant to do, like packing my son’s library books for school. Things I am saying - mid-sentence, while I am saying it. Things I am trying to find, like where is my car keys?

I don’t know how obvious this is to others, but I am acutely aware of it. I try to laugh it off when it happens, but I am pretty embarrassed by it.

I don’t know if this means my sarcoidosis is active at the moment. Or if it means I am too stressed or not sleeping enough. I don’t really have a sarcoidosis expert to ask.

I have spoken to one of my sarcoidosis friends. She says she is experiencing the same thing. It is comforting to know someone else is going through this.

Ironically, I could not find this post to publish it. And I started to wonder if I really wrote it or just imagined it.

I am not really looking for a solution. It would just be nice to know if this is cause for concern. Or not.
