Yes. Got to the point that I was taking dementia medication. A loop was a major challenge for me.
After a few years it came down to two issues.
I had a clotting disorder. (Factor 5 Leiden) I was suffering minor strokes (TIA) without knowing it.
I had high cranial pressure (IIH), which leads to brain fog.
When I started blood thinners, and got IIH under control It was like a flip was switched. Problems that had been taking me weeks of work were done in minutes.
- chaostheory 4y agoThis is for everyone else since hindsight is 20/20, but heavy and consistent cardio exercise can help prevent issues like this. That and keeping your weight on the lighter side.
- worker_person 4y agoFor the IIH. You are sometimes correct. Weight is usually, but not always the issue. Its kind of a checkmark in things you should be doing. An interesting pattern is IIH can prevent exercise. I spent years getting a major headache and brain fog for a week after each workout session. For Factor 5 Leiden. Sometimes genetics just says you're screwed. Nothing other then blood thinners was going to matter for this one.
