Title: Brain fog - normal feelings?!
Post by: CrispyChick on September 07, 2025, 10:58:03 AM

Is it normal to feel like this with brain fog?

So absolutely out of it. Spaced out. Vague and dazed. Dont feel safe to drive.

I guess part of it is forgetfulness - but it's the dazed feeling that gets me. Extreme. Feel like I've taken something.

Is this normal? I have so many other symptoms and everything in me seems elevated.

Ah ok. Well, that makes me feel a bit better about it.

'had' because hrt took it away??? Something I just do not tolerate.  :(

Yes, once I was on the right dose the horrible feelings went away.
