Symptom: MCAS Brain Fog
This post comes to you with a reminder that while “Brain Fog,” is an apt descriptor, it should not be used to undermine the severity of the condition.
“These are fairly identical functional symptoms that people with Long COVID have, to the symptoms that people within a traumatic brain injury have,” says Dr James C Jackson, psychologist specializing on cognitive rehabilitation and Long Covid.
“Strictly speaking, this is not a traumatic brain injury (TBI) because there’s no external trauma. Which is why if we go down deep, this will be not a TBI that people experience. It would be something called an ABI, the lesser-known cousin of a TBI. Acquired Brain Injuries (ABI) happen often due to internal processes, not external medical processes, inflammation, the 101 other mechanisms that drive these injuries. And when we look at the brains of some Long COVID patients, we see brain damage on MRIs, we see indicators that are not dissimilar from those of people with mild cognitive impairment or a mild TBI.“
Dr Jackson is the author of Clearing the Fog: a book on navigating life with the cognitive and mental health impairments that often accompany Long Covid.
Quotes from Dr Jackson’s appearance on the Me Myself & TBI podcast, edited for clarity & brevity.

This is SHOCKING SHIT! At the 16.58 min mark, this #documentary addresses race norming, factoring in the non-existent myth of '#race' when diagnosing players with #cognitiveimpairment who are also racialised as 'black'

The phrase is "Let all Hell break loose", not "let Hell break out".
Someone aging healthily whose cognition was still intact would know that.
Oh, and someone whose cognition was intact wouldn't keep proposing completely unimplementable plans.
If only the US corporate media had made a big thing of warning voters of the danger of voting for an old man with failing cognition during last year's election campaign

"…an international team looked at various biological signals to estimate brain age in 70-year-olds with no #cognitiveimpairment.
What stood out from their analysis of 739 people was the importance of vascular (blood vessel) health when it comes to keeping brains looking young. Habits such as regular #physicalactivity, sticking to a #healthydiet, cutting out smoking, and managing #glucoselevels can improve #vascularhealth."

Hey #longcovid #mecfs #cognitiveimpairment #brainfog community:
I have neuropsychological appointment tomorrow I’ve been waiting on for over a year. I’m doing a lot better with time and a stint of speech-language pathology, but I waited forever so I’m still gonna go. Tests or other info I should ask or advocate for?

#Trump is still claiming he won a "Man of the Year" award in Michigan 20 years ago despite that claim receiving the most debunking fact checks of anything he's ever said. The man is delusional, and an embarrassment. You didn't win that goddammed award, Donald. It's just something you made up, and forgot that it was bullshit.

#Trump said it is incumbent upon #Israel to defeat Vice President #KamalaHarris in November’s #election somehow.
What is this jibbering idiot talking about?? This is the #Republican candidate for #president? Really?? This is who they think should be running the greatest country in the world? The man is completely detached from reality. #Dementia and #cognitiveImpairment have progressed to a point that simply cannot be ignored.

#Trump is suffering serious #cognitiveImpairment, and exhibiting clear signs of #dementia. It's time for the #media to start addressing this uncomfortable fact. Trump's #language faculties are clearly diminished, and he simply cannot maintain a train of thought. No joke, he is not competent to lead the #UnitedStates and the media is doing a great disservice by avoiding the subject.

#Trump continues to defame #EJeanCarroll as he publicly bitches about his own legal team, and makes unfounded accusations about an unfair trial. Everytime this guy opens his mouth and slanders Carroll, she sues and wins. He just can't stop himself.

#DonaldTrump waving to an #emptyTarmac has got to be one of the weirdest things this freakin' #weirdo does. Who TF is he waving at?? And why?? This is not a stable individual who should be allowed to launch nukes. I feel like if you're in the habit of waving at absolutely nobody, you shouldn't be in charge of anything.

#FoxNews' heavily-edited interview of #FelonTrump features the convicted former president reaching into his old playbook with lies, absurd denials of reality, and barely-veiled incitements of violence. Fox has to edit the interview because they're afraid his #cognitiveImpairment and deranged world-salads would be exposed to their viewers. And since their audience is incapable of tolerating reality, this highly curated production is necessary to preserve their ratings.

Katherine Ellison: Living with memory loss, working to fend off dementia: A mild cognitive impairment diagnosis is scary, but recognizing it early is essential to slowing its progression, experts say
"More than occasional forgetfulness, MCI causes problems that disrupt daily life but don’t make it impossible to function, said Ronald Petersen, director of the Mayo Clinic Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging. It is often but not always a precursor to dementia, he added."
"The advantage of catching MCI early is that we can delay progression. Later on, less,” said David Weisman, director of clinical research at Abington Neurological Associates in Abington, Pa., and Dershem’s current doctor. “In neurology we learn the same lessons again and again: Time is brain.”

Sometimes I read things and the words flow through my eyes without reaching my brain. I can read pages and pages without taking in a single thing. I hate it when this happens, and it happens more and more as I get older. Before I got mono when I was 18, my mind retained so much more. Ever since getting mono, it’s so much more difficult to retain/understand things. Menopause and COVID have only made it worse. It’s like I’ve flushed half my IQ down the shitter. Brain fog sucks. #BrainFog #ReadingRetention #CognitiveImpairment
