  • @XboxLass1234 try a food diary and eat food without any additives you will notice a difference i understand how you feel , you have all your life ahead of you so if you can find out what is causing your auras. Look at the bread and cookies you are eating too and if there are additives such as calcium propionate then don't eat them , make your own they are better and tastier , hope this helps let me know how you get on .

  • @AmazonBlondeum the reason you get an aura weeks later is because you are intolerant to the additives you are eating, it is different to a food allergy, intolerance is a build of additives which lead to aura ,

  • I found out that the additive calcium propionate in most breads is a trigger for migraine aura .

    I am trying to find everything to prevent migraine aura it makes my life miserable .

  • i have this, its bad I cant see anything... its blurry and i see a snake like thing that is colored like a rainbow

  • THIS IS WHAT I GET! I had this twice in one week and been getting it since i was a child. I get sort of a zig-zag vision for about 30 minutes and travels across my peripheral vision and i start to get a headache and when i move my eyes it's very painful. And it stays sore for maybe 1-2 days but after the sore eye's i always get sick. even if i don't throw up i will still feel sick.

  • @1121mdcity thats is weird and YES I get sick everytime.

  • Ive had this migraine for 2 and a half day and im 14 think about how i felt ly arm got numb thought i had a clott but thank god. My left eye had a zigzag blur in it and i went to bed woke up 30 min later and my head almost felt like it was gong to explode!

  • Please go onto the es-uk.info forum, you will find many links and posts from others who are unfortunately suffering due to the wireless industry.
