I feel a migraine coming on ...

My eyes are doing all sorts of weird stuff. In my peripheral vision, I am seeing like little heat waves ... does that make sense? It's like a kalediscope effect. This means I will be getting a headache in like an hour.

Fun......

Thankfully they are never too bad - they aren't severe migraines, usually ... just bad eye stuff and a headache ...

I feel ya..I get migraines and they are the worst! I have medication from my doctor to take at the onset of a migraine..that's how bad I get them : ( I had to leave work two weeks ago from an insane migraine......lay down for the rest of the night if you can, keep the lights out and just relax. Feel better.

I thankfully have never experienced a migraine and I cannot imagine the pain you ladies must be in when you get one.

Just wanted to offer .

I get those lines and I get spots in my eye and I know whats coming. What is also weird my left hand goes numb a little. Doesn't last long but is def. uncomfortable. I take Advil Cold and Sinus as soon as I get the symptoms and it goes away. If I don't take something as soon as they start I get a migraine so bad that I can't have any light or movement and the medicine won't work if I wait. I can get sick also sometimes if I take it too late. Its not fun.

I don't get visual cues...but i'll feel the entire left side of my neck and shoulders start to stiffen up. And then I know i have about a 1/2 hour window to swallow down some pills FAST.
