[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 15 year old gets them every rare once in a while. It’s usually either a blind spot or squiggly rainbow lines for about 20-30 minutes, and he rarely gets the accompanying headache.

I get the aura for about 20-30 minutes and then have about 15 minutes of clear vision followed by 4-5 hours of super intense head pain (can’t get out of bed type pain) and another day of migraine hangover (bruised brain feeling, nausea, weakness)[/quote]

Squiggly lines are not a big deal.  I have them all the time.  Its the ones where you basically lose vision and have lots of flashing lights that are scarry.[/quote]

It’s a big deal if you’re about to vault in a gymnastics competition, or take a final exam, or just about anything that requires vision. What I get is almost like a broken glass effect and numbness in my kneecaps or arms. I don’t know how I will ever know if I’m actually having a stroke instead. [/quote]

You sound pretty dramatic.  Be grateful you don't have my migraines.  [/quote]

How dare you judge another persons pain? Migraines are horrific for all. Yours are not worse than anyone else’s. [/quote]

I think this is the same PP who went after a poster inquiring about botox for migraines. That post seems to have been deleted.[/quote]
