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!
