Maybe that's what I have. I'm blaming it on the Taxol. It's not unpleasant. It's even like a mild high. I describe it as "being unable to connect the dots." I'm not productive at work (I'm back part-time as a grant proposal writer). I sit back in my chair, close my eyes and drift away. This can't continue. Next week is my last Taxol (fingers crossed that my blood count will be high enough). I'm hoping to be more alert after the Taxol. I've had six Herceptins so far, will have three more weeklies, then switch to every three weeks. I hope this brain fog will clear up, because it's interfering with my job. Must remind myself that the most important thing is to recover and stay NED. I'll find another, less demanding job if I have to.
