I've used natural treatments so far and I'd say I'm about 70% better. It's been a little over a year since I started treatment. I had a bunch of other stuff to deal with such as food allergies, tons...
I don't know what your diet's like, but I've noticed that when I go off sugar, brain fog is much less of a problem. That and dairy, but I actually have a mild milk allergy - don't know if that would...
