Does Fibromyalgia Affect Your Memory?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Fairbanks, AK

My short term memory is so bad I forget what I just did a minute before. I can't remember if I took my medication or if I just thought about it and of course I don't want to take it twice. Sometimes I can't remember if I brushed my teeth or not and have to check to see if the bristles of my toothbrush are wet. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Did I put soap in the washing machine?

My brain fog is so bad that I’ll be in a conversation and all of a sudden I can’t remember what word to use even though I know what I want to say, lots of times I want to google something but can’t remember what it was I was looking for.

@A MyFibroTeam Member I do those things too. Is it just brain fog? Sometimes I wonder if I have Alzheimer's disease.

Fear is my boogie man, Margaret. It’s what I fight against every day. So yes I get fearful about this and all the other things but I mentally know that fear is a LIAR. And I’m fighting every day to have my body come into agreement with my mind on this. Some days I do better than other days, but God is always good no matter how I feel. Hugs 😘🩷💚

Yes can relate my brain fog is terrible . My OT came out and brought a Alexa echo to help set reminders for medication and appointment or anything as I’ll forget ☹️
