I get the aura but no headache.
I found this very validating as someone whose symptoms typically gradually spread in the exact order the doctor described; I wasn't aware that was the order of the brain regions where the waves go.
I had been experiencing atmospheric pressure migraines with auras that accompany with, and other variances that are associated with migraines. I noticed other significant changes and the affects that made me realize that there was a connection neuron sensitivity along with inflammation flare ups. I later found that I was suffering from magnesium deficiency. after going through therapy of bringing up the level of magnesium and maintaining through supplementation, the migraines have minimized to pretty much ended
what magnesium supplements do you take?
My ocular migraines are triggered by anxiety and high blood pressure. If I keep both under control I don’t get migraine headaches. Removing sugar from my diet has lowered my blood pressure to a beautiful average of 110/70. I believe that a healthy diet of very low carbohydrates and no processed foods is key.
Thank you for describing my aural migraine symptoms. I take sumatriptan 20 mg nasal spray Imitrex as soon as I start getting the aura. It helps abbreviate the ensuing headache. I have had them since age 14 (Male) and they have been decreasing in frequency during aging. I never go anywhere without an emergency Imitrex inhaler. Your description of the aura and treatments are spot on. This is the best video I have seen for my migraine condition.
I have just one thing to say….im not a coffee drinker but I used coffee at a time to give me a pep on the job. I stopped at speedway every morning but it soon caught up to me. I began to have back to back auras throughout the day…I didn’t know why in the hell was this happening. I would usually have 2 to 4 auras a month. I then asked myself what am I doing differently and then it occurred to me is it the coffee from speedway and yep it was. If you’re a coffee drinker I’m crying out…GET RID OF IT…I never cared about the swamp water and it could never be an addiction for me but for those who get aura…that coffee is BIG trouble…It made me a true believer to stay away from it but like I said I just stopped no problem. Now I’m back to 2 to 4 times a month…sometimes I have a very very slight headache but for the most part no headaches since my mid to late 30s…I don’t believe the aura will ever stop in this life but I will keep trying to find different techniques to somehow stop them…good luck to all of my aura and migraines brothers and sisters..I just wish the ALL(GOD) would fix us all with just one touch would be the greatest gift of all.
There is a link between heart problems and the painless type of migraine aura - 50% of people with a condition known as "patent foramen ovale", a congenital leakage between heart chambers, have auras. Have a cholesterol check and a heart check-up, the auras might be a warning of something else.
After Migraine with aura from teen years to 50s, I only have aura now (70yo). They happen more frequently lately so I'm documenting in my calendar.
I found this video very helpful! Thank you for sharing this information.
These things suck. I know I'm going to get one cause I cant read. I can only read the first part of the sentance. Staring at screens I think is a trigger for me. Too much screen time.
Hi thank you very very much for the information because I have migraine and my daughter also have migraine but with the aura I don’t get the aura but it was really good to know about.
Great video! I've been getting these regularly for over 30 yrs...blurry vision, followed by a blind spot, followed by the zig-zag flashing lights, and a couple of hrs later, the headache, which can last several hrs, followed by a sick head feeling. Sometimes I get 2 or 3 a day, one side, then the other side. Oh well, I'm used to them and that's just the way it goes. 😁
Hi, Mine is exactly like yours and about 10 years old. I'm taking some medication and it's somewhat helpful, I'm not migraine-free 100%. May I know what exact medicine are you taking? TIA.
@@RG....... I didn't do any MRI. Based on my problems, the Doc diagnosed my problem as a 'migraine visual aura'; she gave me a pill and it's helping me to a great extent, not 100%, though.
@@ashoks2411 How often do you get this, have you identified the triggers? Your Doc is a Neurologist? There was no discussion for any scans etc?
@@ashoks2411what pill did you get? How is your aura frequency now
@@RG....... Amitriptyline 10mg and since then, migraine has never occurred (almost). Once, I tried with 5 mg, but I got a few attacks, then I got back to 10mg.
I have migraine in upper body now chronic no headache they have changed over decades from head to stomach to shoulders armpits no headache genes for it ADHD autism
Very informative. I have been taking magnesium to prevent muscle cramps but didn’t realise it could help prevent migraines
Hey do you have problems to read book ..how are you reading books...can u tell me
magnesium is used to block pain receptors, and thus minimize or reduce the intensity of migraines.
519 pm take magnesium as glycinate works best 300 mg
I went to an OT for facial release. Helped immensely. She recommended magnesium to help me sleep! Perfect.
I suffer from normal migraines but in 2022 suffered from what was diagnosed as ocular migraines. What is the difference between a retinal migraine or ocular migraine, or are they the same thing? Also, what is happening with a retinal migraine vs a brain migraine? Is it a sign you will lose your vision? Terrifying because I am also deaf.
Can the visual symptoms be like words or objects moving or flickering? Instead?
I was wondering the same thing as that seems to be pretty consistent with my migraines.
I have aura and aphasia, is this discussed?
CELERY JUICE 3-5 times saved me from the aura.I have not had it since! Preferably organic celery. I used to get aura attacks weekly, and after I discovered celery juice Im 100 % fine. If too many days passes between my juices I may start to get pre warnings, I then drink a full glass and it goes right away! It does not always help against migraine, but the aura is gone thank God!
Going to try it do you have hypomobility
@@tomsale5142 i could have, Im very flexible
@@Jjoa1check out if you have autism ADHD found out at 43 genes for it rccx gene theory cause of pain.do you have it daily
got mine 2 weeks ago, seen a random fucking thing doing weird shit in my left eye, 10 mins later it went away but after that i got a headache. this is the first time i have ever experienced this, my sister is 42 and she has been getting these for nearly 20 years, back to me. I got this and literally for 2 weeks i suffered the aftermath ie not feeling right, nausea and loads of random shit.
2 weeks on my stomach still isn;t fully right and my head is about 97 percent back to normal.
no i didnt go the doctors because i am not the type to do such a thing especiallly given the fact my sister has been having such issues for 20 years.
my post is for those that have recently experienced something like what i have mentioned and have experienced bad postdrome or side effects.
please do not fear, your body is very unique and every one differs.
I have never had an aura and afterwards a headache before I was prescribed Vancenase IQ which is manufactured by Pfizer, one of the sponsors of this podcast.
Vague without specific information about Aura disease, useless conversation
