Tiredness, fatigue, lack of sleep

Tiredness, fatigue and lack of sleep can worsen the intensity of persistent aura symptoms. Fatigue and lack of sleep have also been reported as trigger factors of migraine and tension-type headache (Spierings et al., 2001).

Definite persistent aura without infarction

"In addition, poor sleep seems to cause problems as well."

(viper123456 [subject #42], Email to Klaus Podoll, February 24, 2006)

"I noticed that during the times my vs is worse (stress or being tired) I also suffer from a lot of nausea... Do you have this as well?"

(Gyps Kindra [subject #120], Ezboard forum Visual snow and static - Archive 2 – Nausea, October 13, 2003)

"All I can say to everyone with this problem is this: the only thing that makes it worse (worse means for me the days I'm bothered by it and can't look next to it) is: stress and not enough sleep!!! -notice: stress and less sleep is what makes it worse, not what is causing it."

(Gyps Kindra aka Saskia28 [subject #120], Ezboard forum Visual snow and static – Archive - Hello from New member, September 9, 2004)

"... lack of sleep makes these symptoms worse."

(schimdog [subject #52], Ezboard Forum Visual snow or static – Discussion – Sticky: survey responses, January 18, 2006)

"... all symptoms are exacerbated by tiredness."

(Jane10 [subject #23], Email to Klaus Podoll, February 18, 2006)

"There are no triggers for my vision problems, however lack of sleep and exercise make them worse, along with anxiety (really stressful situations i.e. public speaking as I'm a masters student and must give presentations in class which is almost impossible now I get tunnel vision."

(schimdog [subject #52], Email to Sofia Greene, April 7, 2006)

"If I'm tired, it happens more frequently."

(The ShanMonster [subject #75], Email to Klaus Podoll, April 20, 2006)

"The visual snow seems to get worse when I'm tired..."

(CherylT [subject #145], Email to Sofia Greene, July 10, 2006)

"My symptoms do seem worse if I don't get a good night sleep."

(jruddy [subject #515], Yuku forum Visual snow or static – Discussion – My Neurologist Requested This Poll, April 26, 2008)

Probable persistent aura without infarction

"I never had a sleep problem until I got sick. I could sleep 8 hours+ with no problem. After I started getting sick sleep was a major issue (2-4 hours a night even with Ambien) and the lack of sleep made the symptoms worse."

(juliedeeinthesnow [subject #502], Yuku forum Visual snow or static – Discussion – My Neurologist Requested This Poll, April 26, 2008)
