Brain Fog


Jen H

Recommended Posts

Jen H Contributor

Well, I have finally figured out what brain fog is :P . I have been unable to concentrate, find the right words, and pretty much finish an entire sentence. I was glutenized yesterday and am not sure whether it's from that. I'm also not sure I'm getting all the necessary nutrients (just diagnosed). How do you make brain fog go away?

Hi, I know I sure can sympathize. I haven't found anything that helps it go away faster. When it happens I make sure I take my gluten-free mega-vitamins and have 1 more cup of coffee than usual. Hopefully someone out there may know of something that helps more. It does go away fairly quickly for us, within a day or so, and I hope it does for you too. Hang in there and don't be too hard on yourself todays not the day to work on your masters thesis. :) , :lol:

Hey Ravenwoodglass,

What gluten-free mega vitamin do you take?

The brain fog was absolutely crippling for me. The only thing you can do is be extra careful about what you eat and stay as healthy as possible. Get some rest and take care of yourself is about all you can do.

I take 'Country Life' adult chewables and also Maxi-hair by the same company. I get them at a health food store. If you can't find that particular brand check the fine print on any good vitamin. I try to get lots of the B vitamins, 12 in particular because I deal with the ataxia and tingly hands when I get 'got'.

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
