in more ways than one!
i've been doing so well lately and not getting worked up with my HA.. but had a total relapse today. it started yesterday really .. felt kind of weird and off, and this morning when i woke up and sat down at my computer i realized i couldn't really see. i had a sort of circular or C shaped portion of my vision that was sort of blurry or flashing almost. like my vision wasn't completely obscured but the corners of my vision were flashing and blurred. it went away after maybe 5 or 10 minutes. no headache really ..
THEN about an hour later, i smelled nail polish remover and got up to see if it was coming from the next room but the smell didn't change in intensity- it was like it was in my nose. this lasted maybe 10 minutes also.
so scary and frustrating! i always have brain tumor concerns but have been doing so well and this really set me back :(
anyone else experience any of the same? i've browsed visual disturbance thread but not sure if what others were describing was same as me. the smell thing also really scared me.
