Brain Fog and Estreme Fatigue after eating
Posted , 3 users are following.
Does anyone else experience brain fog and extreme fatigue after eating a meal with preservatives and or high sodium (700mg +)? Other than hearing loss it is the most frequent problem I have had recently. I've been through all stages of this disease and I do realize that I now have it better than a lot of people who still suffer vertigo and tinnitus and I'm grateful but I just keep hoping I can get back to a more normal daily routine. Thanks,

Hello Glennmorr,
I am glad you brought this issue up, I have been battling Meniere's since 2005
I too have been able to say bye to most of the vertigo, My hearing is nearly gone, my balance is ruined< I now use a power chair to ambulate. The topic of eating, for some unknown reason to this point, My dizziness worsen with any meal, I have drilled the doctor's about this for a long time now, I finally figured out what it is, When I eat my stomach requires a larger flow of blood for the digestive process, this cause a decrease in blood flow to the brain, and activates "Brain Fog" The only thing that has helped this is to eat several small meals throughout the day
to prevent the stomach from being greedy with the blood flow

I also have brain fog and fatigue, but I've never associated it with any specific foods. But I will try to pay closer attention to that to test your theory. Like you, I've had all the symptoms of the disease. I've had it for 5 years now, but have been vertigo-free for 1 year 4 months. I still struggle with brain fog, tinnitus, fatigue, and sometimes an off-balance feeling when walking. Drinking more water and jogging a little bit has helped me a lot. I also now take gingko biloba, a multivitamin, and lysine daily. Since taking them, the vertigo has not returned.
