Migraine attacks

ohCRICKETS [subject #433], Attack of migraine aura without headache with scintillating fortification, 2007. "This picture is the transitory migraine aura, during which I don't remember any other visual problems." © 2007 ohCRICKETS

"I had a migraine with aura during I Am Legend."

"The left side of my visual field began to go blurry, and a scintillating fortification appeared. It began in the center, going leftward and curving down, though it was less angled than usual scintillating fortifications. As it grew, it moved clockwise until it was out of view. Then my vision slowly became less blurry and obscured, and I think during the aura, my vision became sharper (except the areas with the scotoma) and the snow less noticeable until everything resolved."

"I'll work on the illustration in a bit, but the attack lasted about 10-20 minutes, and the increase in clarity was noticeable about half-way into the migraine and a few minutes after resolution."

"Given, there is a possibility that I was distracted by the huge shimmering line and everything else was just alot less of a priority for my mind to perceive."

"I'm always getting scotomas, which I usually ignore. But lately they've been in the central part of my vision, so I've been paying a little more attention.

Yesterday I was having bigger grained, blacker, flashier snow and I get an oval-shaped patch of completely clear, snow-free vision. It lasted a few hours, ended up as more of a circle. If I closed my eyes, that same patch was a cloudy grey.

Anyone get anything like that? I'm just curious."
