Does anyone else experience long term aura?
Hi I have been experiencing auras for over 3 months now. They began prior to a 27 day un-breakable headache. Now my headaches are minimal most days but come and go (very chronic migraines) but the auras stay. I had blurred vision for a month and a half and for the entire time I have seen starbursts or beams of light coming off of certain types of light sources. Does anyone have experience with auras lasting this long? I can't leave my house after dark because the street lights are so disorienting.
Yes I too have very chronic migraines and also have visual disturbance most of the time.
Vertical and horizontal lines shimmering. I’ve also had some blurred vision - thought it was just me!Wow! I can't believe I found someone else. I can't find anything written about this anywhere on the Internet. How long has this been occurring for you? I feel like I can manage the pain but the visual symptoms are actually the most debilitating thing for me. Also I'm very sorry that you also have to deal with this.
Hi there again
, I am very happy to see that you have received some community feedback, but I did also just want to be sure to mention that if you have not already to be sure to discuss what you are experiencing with you doctor in order to rule out anything more serious.
Hi there

I will be sure to share any additional should the tweet receive any additional responses.

Accidentally, I discovered Scopolamine patches breaks the cycle ... usually. #migraineproblems
Yup, I'm chronic and have some level of headache daily. My aura of neon fireflies in various colors appears nearly daily, intensifiying as the headache worsens, and as the day progresses. Don't really have a way to get rid of them.
hi its comforting to see many more people on here that can relate to me
I have floaters daily my problem is forgetting about them and not getting too anxious which I do on occasions, to forget they are there is a relief, its not good to think about it too much, although I know that's easier said
hope all of you find a way to cope with this, thanks for giving me comfort
