Off topic. Does anyone else suffer with migraines? i.e zigzags?

Iv had thee worst migraine today I get zigzags in my eyes, numbness and confusion. There bloody horrible. Iv suffered with them for years. They always make me feel like im having a bloody stroke grrr. So now for the rest of the day ill feel like sh*t

Yes I get them hun, awful. Have you tried taking migralief? It helps a little bit. Better than just normal tablets anyway xx

Horrible arnt they Reg? How bad do u get them? xx

Sometimes so I can’t get out of bed literally can’t lift my head off the pillow or open my eyes. They are horrible. I don’t tend to get them very much recently but I used to get them all the time. Feel really sorry for you hun, I hope you start feeling better xx

Thanks reg I get really bad confusion wiv them im like where the feck am i haha.. Shouldnt laugh cos at the time i think im bloody dying xxx

Aww hun i had one this morning. Straight back to bed i went I get the zigzags in my eyes, pins and needles all in my face and hands and bad confusuion to the point where i cant talk And now im left with the most horrendous headache and funny sention in my head. Iv just had a shallow bath as i look a mess. Cant brush my hair properly or anything. Iv come on my period this morn so that on top of feeling like crap from the ba has made me have one. When will all this end im feeling very down at the minute and alls i want to do is pick up my 6 month old baby boy and give him a cuddle and i cant

migraines with aura i absolutely hate them and every time i get one it freaks me out, i used to get them loads when pregnant and breastfeeding but fingers crossed have not had one in about a year, i feel for those who get them, the doctor told me as soon as you get the funny eyes to take 3 paracetamol and you shouldnt get the other symptoms xx

Yes the aura is horrible isnt it? I started with these nearly 6 years ago when i was first pregnant with my daughter and iv had them ever since. They make u feel funny for the rest of the day though dont they? I felt funny headed allday x x

Hey Sammie, i was the same!!i suffered migraines for years and recently got them 2/3 times a week.. my migraines started in my left eye like a fuzzyness then i would loose my vision, my head then felt as if it was swelling up and i used to get sick.. my head also felt like it had a bowling ball in it and wow the pain was unbearable! i had to sleep it off in a dark room . have you had your eyes tested??? BF suggested i went to the opticians. i laughed and said Nooo i dont need to, anyway the migraines continued soooooo i book an app to see an optician!! BF was “RIGHT” hahaa. i needed glasses!! the migraines were because i was always straining my eyes. xxx Check it out as it may be the reason xx

Thanks ladyc. Yes had my eyes tested and there perfect Spose just one of them things i suffer with x x

yeah my head felt funny all day, even got confusion and i call it numb brain, sometimes i wouldnt even be able to tell you what my kids names were, its horrible and scary but thats all it is as there not dangerous x

I get them and it’s always for 3 days, I just get the pain across my right eye and it feels like I can’t open it, I always get nausea with it as well. I can’t even lie down and sleep cos it feels like I have one of those big iron anvils stuck on my head pushing my head down, bleurgh. At first coming off the pill helped cos apparently the oestrogen in it can trigger them, but now I am starting to get them back quite regularly, my tramadol I got when I came back from the hospital triggered my last one, how can painkillers do that lol!!! I have to chop and change my tablets cos my body seems to get used to them after a while. am dreading getting them when I start my new job, they’re horrible. Hope you’re feeling better soon x
