Just suffered a major migraine attack full of Aura flashes numbness on one side. What is this?

  1. Hello . I'm sorry to hear about your recent major migraine attack. Although we are not doctors and cannot diagnose, it sounds like your migraine could have been a hemiplegic migraine. I'm linking an article here with more information about these, https://migraine.com/migraine-types/hemiplegic-migraine. As I mention, we are not doctors here, so please do consider reaching out to your doctor / neurologist to let them know of this new symptom, if you haven't already. It's always good to check in with them on any new or worsening symptom. Wishing you a gentle day! -- Warmly, Christine (Team Member)
