Can brainfog in some cases be caused by inlamed cranial nerves?

[ChookityPop]

My median nerve is super inflamed in both arms and the same goes with the nerves in my legs.

This is on and off. Not constant.

I havent had brainfog since 2014/15 ish (knock on wood). At least not full blown "dementia" feeling as I used to have. Heavy carb meals increased the severity and Naproxen reduced its severity.

I wonder if my brainfog could be caused by nerve inflammation. Since I seem to have it all over my body. Maybe there could be some ways to stop or attenuate the inflammation.

Dr Michael VanElzakker some years ago proposed a hypothesis that ME/CFS might be caused by a chronically infected and inflamed vagus nerve (one of the cranial nerves).

Thanks for letting me know. Interesting.

Interesting theory. Sadly, the proposed treatment Ibudilast had no effect on me.
