[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 123413, member: 3388"] Shari, I always get auras before I get the pounding pain of a migraine. Luckily for me, it only happens a couple times per year. I usually see all kinds of flashing lights in my field of vision, or lose partial vision in one eye. It makes it impossible for me to read or drive. It used to happen to me before my periods. If I immediately popped three to four ibuprofen when it happened, most of the time I could stop the migraine before the pounding headache and vomiting began. Otherwise, I would be in agony for hours... And, afterwards, I would feel wrung out, weak and totally exhausted. If you have migraines, I hope you have the silent kind that others mentioned without the pain. I never knew about silent migraines until I read about them here. Anyway, I agree with the others that you should see a doctor. You should definitely rule out a detached retina. I hope you feel better soon!!! WFEN [/QUOTE]
