http://www.planetpookie.com/2013/10/foggy-thinking-lethargy.html
Thursday, February 6. Foggy Thinking, Lethargy. In the hormonal madness called menopause, I often find myself in a fog of confusion, staring blankly, wondering what I am supposed to be doing. In addition to menopause, I have foggy thinking from the chemo I take and the blood cancer I have as well. It presents in that. I know I am supposed to be doing something.
