Migraine with aura, numbness, and aphasia.

Posted by juliel1965 @juliel1965, 6 days ago

Hello - 30 years ago I was at work and had a blurry spot in my vision, followed by my entire left arm going numb, followed by trouble speaking. It all happened within 45 minutes. When it was all over I was exhausted. It happened every few months or so and sometimes it would wait a year.

I moved to Texas eight years ago and the migraines changed to me feeling dizzy and feeling like I had a conversation with somebody that I knew I never had.

Last week, after a visit to a chiropractor my jaw was killing me. Went to the dentist to make sure it wasn’t tooth related. I was also checked for TMJ which he said I didn’t have. Yesterday, I had one of the old migraines with the blurry vision and numbness, But the trouble speaking didn’t happen, maybe because I took a migraine pill with the vision changes.

It’s very strange that all of a sudden the old migraine symptoms came back. Anybody experienced anything like this and what helped? Thank you!

I’m currently on sumatriptan (100mg) and But/asa/caff 50-325-40 mg

Are you seeing a neurologist for your migraines and to review your symptoms? Have you had a MRI of your head and neck/cervical spine to see if you have inflammation, compression of nerves/vessels, etc.?
