You sure have come a long way in less than two years. It is wonderful that

you are able to take advantage of the F & F medical services.

I can identify with your descritpion completely. I can remember sitting in

church...noises amplified in my head, activity...just people sitting around

me, were a distraction, lights even seemed too much for my brain to process. It

seemed as if there was too much information coming in and my brain just shut

down because it was overwhelmed.

The good news is, today I'm feeling much better, healthier, brain function,

while a long way from perfect is better. I don't get overwhelmed driving 5

miles into town and back...usually. In fact we went on an 8 hour shopping trip

yesterday and while I was exhausted, I wasn't overwhelmed! I'm so very

thankful for that.

In case you want to ask, I can't say what turned my health around. I go to a

Fibro and Fatigue Center. They treat on many levels...mitochondrIn case you

The amino acid, SAM-e, as recommended by my rheumatologist, improved brain

function significantly. mjh

Hi Marcia and L,

I have this problem too. I worry that it will get to the point that I

will not be able to manage my own affairs.

When I first became ill 16+ years ago my cognitive function got so bad

that I couldn't comprehend a paragraph of a newspaper article. I would

start to speak and forget what I was talking about before I could

finish a sentence.

Magnesium injections helped some at first but I stopped getting any

additional improvement after my magnesium deficiency was eliminated, I

think.
