Yup. Although I don’t always have all those symptoms at the same time. The concentration problem is probably the most frustrating, since it affects most everything I do and doesn’t seem excusable except when I also have a headache or exhaustion. I also have depression along with the inability to concentrate. Everything gets all mixed up and hard to separate. And yup, those good days are *good*! — "We are confronted by insurmountable opportunities." Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Ohhhhhhhh yeah. If it’s any consolation, my brain fog has lifted quite a bit over the last three months after two whole #*!@! years of not being able to work more than a few hours a day due to all the things you describe. I know how much fun it is to think again! Suzanne * – * – * – * – * – * – * – * – * – * – * – * – * Suzanne Doig – remove *!* from reply-to address http://www.geocities.com/smdnz/

My daughter who has lupus frequently gets this. We call it "brain fog." It’s been a big problem off and on for the past couple of years. We notice it’s quite a bit worse when she’s flaring and better when she’s having a good day. For the most part, we’ve found the best way to get this under control was focusing on managing her lupus as a whole. Even so, it pops up from time to time. I think to some extent, there’s no avoiding it. Sandra
