Hi I have m.e/fibro and anxiety. I and am worried about my memory. I know brain fog can be common with these conditions but I'm still worried stiff.
I forget things really quickly. I called to my husband the other day and he answered and within seconds I totally forgot what is called him for.
I go to do something then completely forget what I was about to do.
When I'm about to speak or say something I think of completely the wrong word before I'm about to say it. For example I went to say chicken the other day and the word penguin popped in my head first!? so I had to consciously think to say the word chicken before I actually said it out loud. And I went to shout my sisters dog yesterday and her old dogs name popped into my mind first to say before his proper name. I also went to say stapler at work but before saying it the word ruler or something came out but I know the word I want to say.
When I'm talking I feel tongue tied too like I'm not pronouncing things properly and just not sounding right.
I feel I don't remember things people have told me either. Worried.
