Are you struggling with memory, focus, or finding the right words? You’re not alone. Many people affected by cancer experience cognitive changes, often referred to as “brain fog.” This can impact daily life, making it harder to concentrate, problem-solve, or complete tasks efficiently.

Common symptoms include:

• Memory concerns
• Difficulty finding words
• Reduced attention and concentration
• Slower information processing
