Question: blurry vision along with my migraines and even blurry vision without migraine
Answer:
Dear Yasemin,
You need to get yourself to a neurologist or Migraine specialist for good care.
You may or may not "outgrow" your Migraines. To tell a patient that indicates
that the doctor, while well intentioned, doesn't really understand that Migraine
is a genetic neurological disease that needs treatment. If your medication had
little effect, then you need to try other medications. There are many of them
available now.
You also should know that a Migraine that lasts too long can be detrimental to
your health. It increases stroke risk. When the pain of a Migraine lasts more
than 72 hours with less than a solid four-hour block of pain-free time while
awake, it's termed Status Migrainous and you should seek emergency care. See:
Head Pain:
NOT To Be Ignored!
"Better safe than sorry," could never be more true. When the pain of a Migraine
continues too long, it results in increased stroke risk.
Take care of yourself,
Teri Robert
Dear Yasemin,
Without studying your medical records and examining you, I simply don't know;
you may have a lot of blurry vision with your Migraines. Have you had a
traumatic brain injury of any sort? Very open-ended question. Teri is right that
you need to seek care from a good specialist. You definitely need to investigate
the blurry vision.
Good luck,
