I used to get migraines a lot when I was a teenager, and the first warning sign would be my sight suddenly becoming...warmer, I guess...and about 5 minutes later the auroa would set in and make everything extremely bright. Mine always started on my left then migrated across my field of vision.
I got those too, and just to let you know, because I was not aware of this, if you get aura migraines you’re twice as likely to get a stroke as everyone else. Your chances are still low, but you’re advised to steer clear of smoking and medicine that can raise chances of strokes.
That I did not know. Thanks for the info. Luckily I've mostly grown out of them, but occasionally get hit when the circumstances are just right: too hot, too much caffeine, and not enough to eat.
This is crazy.
I've had these a few times, but honestly never knew that it was a migraine. It usually starts off with my eyes (Exact same feeling as this picture). Then my hand (usually right) goes completely numb, followed by my face. For a few minutes, I feel like I'm losing my mind and then it suddenly stops, it all just goes away, but I'm left with an intense, throbbing headache.
In school, I used to have them more frequently, but I'm happy to say it doesn't occur as often anymore. Although, when it does, it really sucks.
I got the same thing but on the left side: left eye goes black, left arm goes numb, but then my migraine would show up. I’m not super educated in it, but I know that the aura is because of blood vessels in your brain constricting, causing weird vision stuff. Because the vessels are smaller it’s harder for blood to pass through and you could get an isemich stroke.
