Massive aura migraine

Posted , 10 users are following.

I had the worst experience of my life yesterday.

I was rushed to hospital with symptoms of a stroke. I lost my ability to say words and then my speech all together, I was confused, couldn't hear, had wiggly lines in front of my eyes and memory loss. I was in a state of confusion for about four hours

Turned out to be a massive aura migraine. So scary :-(

Has anyone ever experienced anything like this?

    Yes penny I had the same experience. My neurologist diagnosed it as a hemiplegic migraine. according to Google it was supposed to be gone in a few days for a month at the most. that was February of this year. I'm still having left-sided weakness and auras everyday. In fact the last month now I'm starting to get the headaches

    it has been very helpful to use a free download on Google Play called Migraine buddy. It helped me know a lot more about what auras really are and thus I take my medication much earlier
