It really isn’t “convenient”. I have bouts of all three of those things. Had one this morning and I had to go back to bed. I haven’t had COVID

I am going to do a restrictive diet to see if something could be an issue that just isnt showing up on allergy tests. Like silent Celiac disease because I have the HLA-DQ 8 gene.

I encourage people to spend the money and get genetic testing if you are in diagnosis hell. It helped me target testing to get. You can get brain fog from Sjogren’s. You can also get it from Celiac Disease. If you have tested negative for Sjogren’s there is an early Sjogren’s test at Quest.

Unfortunately, people are at the mercy of the Doctors to lead them to the right testing. You have to take control of your medical situation.

“You have to take control of your medical situation.”

That is so true. Gone are the days when your physician had his patients’ best interests as a priority.
