I would be cautious of describing it as "brain fog", I think the phrase trivialises the problems that claimants face with memory and cognition, due to their conditions, tiredness or the effects of medication.
Explain how you are affected and what causes the issue. You need to be affected on the majority of days so explain when you are affected and if it varies, how this happens? How you are at your worst, your best and on average, best doesn't have to mean OK.
To be of value you must relate your problems back to the PIP activities, so explain how your memory and cognitive problems affect your ability to complete the PIP activities.
