Brain fog with Osteoarthritis. [View all]

I sometimes get this fog on days when my Arthur is acting up. I read that it is a symptom of Fibromyalgia/RA, but I don't have RA, and Fibro is rare among men.

I am of the mind that the pain causes my consciousness to drop to deal with the pain. Have any of you experienced the same?
