I have been suffering with a phantom smell for 18 months. My smell is also smoke. It’s a heavy bonfire type smell and you feel like you are standing in the middle of it and you can’t get away. I had it the first time and then again a month and it lasted 3 days both times. Then again a few weeks later and that time it stayed a week. Grim.

I have some of these issues but not yet extreme. I do find the longer I have MS the more fog. Forgetting things is a big part and short term memory. Confusion is among them but thankfully not often.

Devin, I do not know how to begin with this posting. What I can say is how thankful I am for this article. My cognitive impairment has been exactly what you’ve described and yes, I am scared. I am scared! I’ve been declining recently and can’t find a way out of it. I don’t know how to make it better. My brain is mush most of the time. I forget…

Ashley, you are so spot on about this. What you describe is exactly what I go thru as well, and I feel like its a never-ending struggle to make people understand this real problem with MS and Heat.

I have dragged myself to hot-day events out of pressure or guilt, only to regret ever having done so. The consequences of going somewhere you know…

My son had a medical issue and he went down to the office where he could sign up and he was fortunate to talk with a reasonable, easy to talk with representative. I went with him at the time and only when in when the rep needed some info my son did not know. My son was in his…

…lol…cognitive impairment + ms dementia. I found a really good informational article here- https://www.dementia.org/multiple-sclerosis-and-dementia
Why was I looking at this? Because it sounds like we have many similar symptoms. Plus I saw my neurologist this past week and was recommended to a neuropsychiatrist for testing for dementia. Scary…

Hi Devin. I have not read your posts in a while because I have been trying to stay away from MS talk due to exhaustion on Lemtrada treatment, year 2 recently. But last night that changed and I spent time researching cognitive decline as it relates to
