How Long do your Visual Migraines Last?

[BlueIris]

Here's a list of some of the weird aura phenomena I've had before.

* Aura with no headache
* Aura with mild headache
* Daily aura for several days, finally developing a severe headache
* Three auras in one day
* Two auras in three hours
* Aura lasting five minutes
* Aura lasting two minutes
* Aura starting with three separate blind spots

They're weird, they're scary, but they absolutely don't mean you have a brain tumour.

You are probably one of the nicest people I never met. I see how you always comment on people’s posts to reassure them and I hope you realise how invaluable it is to have someone respond to you in your time of need.

Its been 4 days since my last migraine hoping to make it at least a week

Sorry, but read this again.....



SO, what are you worried about, you've had visual migraine many times before ?



They won't take things seriously that don't merit being take seriously. 'Listening to you' seems to be a synomn here for 'take my HA fears seriously and start testing, despite their years of medical training indicating there is nothing physically wrong'.

I agree and I feel so stupid worrying like I do. HA has took 14 years of my life and it is only getting worse as I get older.

it is a constant voice in my head and the more I tell it to go away and ignore it the louder it shouts until I have no choice but to listen.

The minute I get over one worry my brain is trying to think of something else to worry about, whether it was something that happened weeks ago or something that is happening right now.

I really hope the pschologist can help. I thought that the anti depressants were working but i believe they were just placebo.
