Migraine Aura
by Erica
Allow me to describe what happened to me yesterday at work:
-Blind spots were appearing while I was talking to a co-worker.
-My face started to turn numb
-I had diffeculty finding the right words to say. Example: I couldn't remember the name of my hospital, the street on lived on, or my father-in-law's name.
-My right had went numb
These symptoms, called aura's, usually occur 30 minutes before the onset of a migraine.....and they did. I thought I was having a stroke or had a tumor rupturing. I was thankful I just had a migraine.

linny,
how scary....i'm sorry you have to deal with migraines.
I can only imagine that they are awful.
but i'm glad that something much worse wasn't the cause of those symptoms.
