I get this and it crosses from one eye to another XXXXxxxxxxx flashing. I got it once when i was driving on a motorway and it was wet dark and raining heavy. with trucks screaming bye i just had to keep going, It was horrable.


The aura is not always part of a migraine. However, migraines are on a 4 point scale:

0 = No pain
1 = mild pain, does not interfere with usual activities
2 = moderate pain, inhibits, but does not wholly prevent usual activities
3 = severe pain, prevents all activities

For information look it up on wikipedia, and also go to migraine(dot)com


i see flashing lights like lightning then my vision is completely blurry , and twice my whole left hand side of my body went completley numb but i dont usually get the headaches. dr tell me i have silent migraine, is it safe to drive like this ????


I have suffered since childhood, and now both my children have them as well. The paralysis can be very frightening, and the pain excruciating. I would not wish this on anyone. The new medications are the saving grace for my children as are -avoiding certain foods, smells, decreasing stress, balancing hormones and avoiding certain environmental
situations can help tremedously.


I used to get them. I don’t get migrianes as much. I don’t get them all the time when I get the migrianes. I could tell I am getting it sometimes. Gr…. They suck.
