Mood, anxiety & brain fog

You do not have to push through in silence.

Dr. Saltz explored how mood, anxiety, hot flashes, and poor sleep can overlap. Concentration changes deserve attention, and persistent or disruptive symptoms may need further evaluation. A medication that no longer seems effective is a reason to speak with its prescriber, not adjust it yourself.

A thoughtful place to start

1. 1Note changes in concentration, mood, sleep, and daily functioning.
2. 2Include current medications and what has changed in your visit notes.
3. 3Ask whether additional mental-health or cognitive assessment would help.
