Migraine
Yesterday I had a terrible migraine.
I didn't have it for a long time ago.
I was almost all the day in bed. And, at night I felt nauseous and with some pain, yet.
But the worst was the aura*.
Besides having 2 times visual aura, I have sensory symptoms too, and was terrible. It seemed that I had some claws pressing my arm and my face...
*Migraine with aura
This is the second most commonly seen form of migraine.
Aura consisting of at least one of the following:
- Fully reversible visual symptoms (e.g. flickering lights, spots, lines, loss of vision)
- Fully reversible sensory symptoms (e.g. pins and needles, numbness)
- Fully reversible dysphasia;
I always had migraine with visual aura symptoms. But, the sensory symptoms are terrible. 1st time I had it, I thought that I was having a heart attack, because it only appears on one side of our body.
