Two weeks ago had really bad migraine and vertigo attack. Recovered and did well for about 10 days. Happy.
Then, schedule picked up – as in spring it often does – attended a carnival for charity and stayed too long, I guess.
The crowds, stimulation, excitement. So, of course, downhill city again with migraine pain and signs of approaching vertigo.
Does anyone else have blurred, difficult vision before migraine and vertigo. ???
This is one signal that heralds a migraine problem. The vision is really crummy.
No meds for migraine yet but health professional suggests TOPAMAX. I also read that verapamil may help.
It seems the migraine I get MAY be called BASILAR.
So far, cannot find a good health professional familiar with migraines.
Feel sorry for anyone else with this problem. UGH :o
I very rarely get vision problems with my migraines, but I have done, and I think it would be normal that the vision problems often come before the other signs.
If you are suffering on a frequent basis, it would be a good idea for you to try some medication. Personally I’ve found medication to be really useful in controlling my condition.
Raven – migraine causes my vision to blur all the time. It fluctuates daily at the moment. This morning when I got on the bus and tried to read the paper (which I can normally do holding it at arms length without glasses), it was all just a big smudge. :shock:
[size=150]Thanks everyone for your feedback.
The blurry vision things is really awful. I’m going to try some medication soon and may go to Johns Hopkins for an appointment there. [/size]
My vision can be cloudy (hard to describe exactly) and hard to focus when I’m symptompatic/chronic, but more specifically I get visual aura (scintillating scotoma) as part of stand alone migraines. I’m not sure if you’re asking about either or both of these…?
