I've experienced aura 3 times (all in the last 2 years) and now I'm worrying about its implications. The last 2 times have been during or just after competitive sports - so I'm thinking the physical exertion may have triggered them. The first time, I was just having breakfast. I can control the headache with meds as soon as the aura starts, so that's okay - but omg I hate the aura! It's so scary. Even now I know what it is, it still makes me panic. Can't help thinking that something is wrong with me or that I'm going to have to give up my sports because of it. Stupid zigzag flashy things!!!
