@jcastroOFFICIAL me too is anything wrong with it ?

This doctor for some reason reminds me of Jim Henson. Think its his mannerisms and speech, though I'm sure the long face a beard are also helping.

@Crystal0mask that is the exact same symptoms i have when i get it, its really scary, it last for like 20 minutes then i get a horrible headache and nausea

[Crystal0mask]

I just got this recently, it started as a small fuzzy spot in the centre than it gradually got larger, when it was small I could not see things in the centre, then when it became larger things on side could not be seen. Really scary, second time this happened.

@thelonewolf21693 I got this for the first time on Sunday night, really scary! I am glad I don't get the migraine! You read on it some do not get the headache afterward.

I get weird auras and then painful migraines, OR I get the blind spots (ophthalmic migraine) that gets bigger and bigger before going away but without pain. Even though it is frightening to be blind I'll take the ophthalmic migraine any day. Topamax only helps a little with the painful migraines and doesn't help the eyegraines at all.

I get one side of my vision blurred and fuzzy, afterwards a terrible headache then i feel sick like i will throw up afterwards and usually do. Is this regular migraines or could it be my vision?

@RexNinja500 same here i thought i was going blind

[josh1422]

i lost about half my vision in both eyes then i got a massive migraine. what is this?

[RexNinja500]

Today right before my Trig class, my peripheral vision in my right eye just stopped working. And now I have a horrible headache. It scared the hell out of me when it was happening...
