[Title] => Hepatitis C causes neurotoxic ‘brain fog’
[Summary] => HCV linked to impaired cognition, decreased motor function. Patients with chronic hepatitis C frequently report a persistent lassitude, or "brain fog", that seriously impairs their functioning. To this end, Canadian researchers have discovered organic brain abnormalities in these patients that suggest a direct link between cerebral dysfunction and hepatitis C, regardless of disease severity. Additional study results show that almost half of patients with even mildly fibrotic hepatitis C virus (HCV) develop impaired learning ability, and one in six suffer from reduced motor skills.

[Title] => Organic cause of ‘brain fog’ in hepatitis C
[Summary] => The complainant of ‘brain fog’ commonly voiced by patients with chronic hepatitis C infection even in the absence of cirrhosis appears to have an organic cause, as reported at the annual Digestive Disease Week.
One strong possibility is that this brain fog results from a direct neurotoxic immunologic effect of the hepatitis C virus upon the CNS, according to one doctor of the University of Toronto.
Typical complaints of brain fog in patients with chronic hepatitis C involve forgetfulness, fatigue, difficulty in concentrating, and depression.
