Am I unusual

I have been getting weird migraines with no order of symptoms and it can go on for weeks. I get blurry eyesight first, then numbness, then pain or aura and then it just keeps going around all those symptoms randomly. Last time I had auras for over 3 weeks and ended up in hospital where they ruled out anything else. I now have it again and it’s been nearly a week. I get headache, numbness and wrote auras when I have my eyes open and shut. I get numbness in my arm that lasts for a few minutes and I’ve had that 3 times in the past few days too!

  1. Hi - Thank you for sharing what your migraines have been like for you lately. They sound incredibly debilitating. Has anyone given you an answer to the type of migraine you may be experiencing? Since we're not medical professionals, we can't diagnose your condition, but I can say that your symptoms appear to align with something like hemiplegic migraines. Here's a link to more info: https://migraine.com/migraine-types/hemiplegic-migraine. Do you feel like this label resonates with what you're going through? - Cody (Team Member)

    1. Hi, yes it sounds like what many suffer from but what no one really says is whether the symptoms go on for days or weeks? They only say auras last a few minutes or hours but mine come and go over much longer and I get pain now and again and numbness! I just want it to go away!!
