The existing terms I tend to hear are ‘brain fog’, CRS (can’t remember shit), and for those with a few more braincells still intact, ‘CRAFT’, or Can’t Remember A Fucking Thing.
Yes, I gather that basically any doctor worth their weight in salt should interpret those sort of terms as the patient has brain/memory issues, but isn’t there some easier and less self-insulting term than CRAFT?

Those are describing symptoms, though, and could be any number of things. No, there are not other terms currently. That’s why I’m asking you, what do you propose? You are the one that sees there being an issue with this that you want to resolve, what terms do you propose that will describe these conditions, distinguish them from other similar but unrelated conditions (a form of dementia vs stroke vs concussion, etc), isn’t insulting, and is easy to remember?
