brain fog and memory problems?

I am really hoping with proper treatment and I am cured that my memory problems will get better and the brain fog/dizziness goes away and I will be able to read again without having to re-read words & sentences over and over again to try to comprehend!

Feel like I am living in a fog all the time!

Sometimes even cooking is such a chore!

Anyone with success have these problems go away?

I am really really hoping so!

Yes, these problems will definitely go away!

The feeling of not being able to read is the worst!! Most of my symptoms have resolved but this one stands out as being a huge piece of the puzzle.

You don't realize how bad these issues are until they go away. I used to drive around in a complete daze, staring into space...

Not to worry!

Depends on how long you've had the brain fog.

I've had bart for over 30 years, quite ill for the last 10. Much better the last 2 years but my cognitive function is still poor with almost 3 years treatment.

I'd love for it to go away. I'm trusting It just takes awhile longer depending how long you've had the brain symptoms.

speedy recovery for you!

Oh good! So glad to hear that! Thanks for well wishing!

3 weeks on Doxy did nothing for me. Now I am on Ceftin. Started 2 days ago.

Saw my primary care dr yesterday (until I can get to see the LLMD on Nov. 18th) and he mentioned IV therapy!

I am a mother of a toddler and 2 elementary aged children so it's difficult to help them with HW and read all their papers that come home from school.

And it's difficult to cook dinner with all the steps involved.

Like I am a robot and doing all the tasks very slowly because my brain can't process correctly and I forget what I just did or what to do next!

Was free of them for about 7 months last year. Now they're back far worse than they ever were and completely treatment-refractory.
My quickest decline I suffered on Samento/Banderol, wchich is consistent with the conclusion of Swiis researcher Martin Sievers that Samento promotes Borrelia growth.

Will never touch it again.

Yes, I had severe cognitive issues and brain fog, and now that I'm healthy, they're gone.
