its strange because i can be at work happy as anything then the next minute i get a blind spot either that is the sign i have one coming on or my hand starts going numb then i have to shoot off home straight away, then the pins and needles start and the numbness but only on one side of my body (exactly half) once that has cleared sometimes i can have up to 3 lots of pins and needles, then comes the massive headache on the opposite side to where the numbness is i know they say that the right hand… read more

Well it does sound like migraine with aura, but I would definitely get it confirmed by your doctor just to be safe.
i have been doing tests myself as i seemed to get no help from the mediacl team which is what they are supposed to be trained to help figure out and for the past 3 weeks i have had no migraine, its still early days but i am feeling optimistic about it being that but i have now started to feel like i lack energy and have lost weight through it (which is a good thing) but need to find something to replace it so im still getting my calcium etc.. maybe worth a shot ruling cheese out yourselves to do this test so its not just me? as i did eat a fair amount of cheese
I also get the auras but found no answers as yet, still looking if anyone knows of a good treatment will be useful!
