Brain Fog Medication

Hey all, just a quick update. I finally got a hold of my neurologist yesterday. I need to email him directly instead of going through his nurse because I am confused on many of the things that he suggested. We have already tried many of his suggestions and either did not like them or the way I am currently doing is better.

Anyways, he has prescribed a non-stimulant ADHD medication to be used as an alertness aid. For people who do not have ADHD the medications used to treat it can help to wake you up, keep you more alert, and work through the brain fog. I am going to start on a low dose of a medication called Strattera. I am starting at 10 mg, and can go up from there if necessary. Hopefully this will help me have more energy and be able to concentrate better!!!

I will update again later this week after I talk to my neurologist and hopefully hear back from The Chiari Institute in New York!!!!
