@rwinney this migraine diagnosis is very new for me. I know I have had mild migraines on and off for a long time. The latest episode didn’t feel like a migraine to me. It was more of a sinus attack, with a unilateral, temporary, total vision loss. I was tested for Giant Cell Arteritis and all test were negative.
Then, I spoke with my neurologist. He diagnosed me with migraine with aura, and occipital neuralgia.
That was just 2 weeks ago.
So, I have never done anything for migraines because I have never had “bad”ones. At this point I don’t imagine that I will have to take any kind of medication.
I ordered the glasses because I know light really bothers me at times. I also have fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia tends to make light, smell, and temperature problematic.
