Aura after the migraine?

Hi everyone, I suffer from migraines. [Thankfully - due to beta blockers - I get migraines far less frequently that I used to]. Yesterday morning, I woke up with a typical migraine. What happened out of the ordinary was that after a few hours the pain began fading, and after the pain was gone, I began experiencing an aura (blurry vision) - which I usually experience BEFORE I get the migraine. Given the fact that I never experiencing an aura AFTER having a migraine, I figured that the aura meant that I was going to get another migraine momentarily, bus as it turned out the aura concluded (after 30 minutes or so) and (thankfully) no headache hit me.

So I was wondering if anyone else ever had such an experience of an aura AFTER a migraine?

Thanks

  1. Hi Mr. Bob,

    Thank you for your question. While not common, it is possible to have extended vision issues after an attack. Now having said that, anytime we have new and/or different symptoms its important to discuss them with the doctor so he/she can rule out anything serious.

    Hopefully others will be along shortly to share their experiences with you.

    Nancy
