What are some of the cognitive challenges you've had and what helps?

  1. Hey there voiceofjoyce,
    Thanks for reaching out. I thought I would share an article that we have shared both here on our site and on Facebook regarding cognitive dysfunction. I thought you might find the member comments especially useful to review -

    Thanks again for your question! -Joanna (Migraine.com Team)

    1. Thank you Joanna, for the links and all others who already "weighed in." I think I started reading the article and got frustrated and since I am relatively new to migraine.com, I discounted it instead of delving further. The comments were very helpful, insightful, saddening and hopeful all at the same time.
      Thank you.
      ~J

  2. I have to thank you Joyce for posting the question. Like you I am new here and would have never found the article without Joanna linking it.
    I get many of the symptoms the rest of the community gets and even started to think I was experiencing early onset dementia. But it all matches up; language problems, word recall, short term memory issues....
    Sorry, will edit in more in a few days, have to stop looking at the screen as I have one coming on.
