Migraines and hallucinations

Just was wondering if any of you guys experience hallucinations?

thanks splitting head

  1. Hi splitting-head,

    Migraine auras are often referred to as hallucinations, as the patient experiences things that aren't actually there.

    What kind of hallucinations do you experience?

    Here is some information on Migraine aura and what to expect:

    1. I've not actually had hallucinations while having a migraine or while experiencing a migraine aura.

      But I have been having hallucinations mainly at night or in the morning, I'm hearing conversations and feeling things. don't know if there connected to the migraines but was wondering if others get them. because I read about on here.

      thanks splitting head

      1. splitting-head - Of course we can't diagnose you here, but this sounds like something you should talk to your doctor about. These types of hallucinations aren't typical for Migraine. That doesn't mean they aren't related, but that's what a good specialist will be able to tell you. 😀
