I notice that as I get older (68), I get just as many (if not more) migraine-preceding visual auras (mine are skittering chevrons*), but the subsequent headache is far less severe.
I still feel hungover for about 18 hours, though.
I'll take it...it's far better than needing to lie down in a dark room and writhe in pain for six hours.
*Interesting observation: "Skittering chevrons" is how i would describe the visual hallucinations I had when on 'shrooms.
My ocular/retinal (visual) migraines are not associated with the migraine headache. It's just a visual disturbance that typically passes after a couple of hours. Not the aurora precursor of impending doom.

Obviously, you know why your foot hurts. You stepped on a rock. You answered your own question.

Wondering why we celebrate American independence on July 4th. We declared our independence on that day in 1776, but we didn't achieve independence until the British recognized it with the Treaty of Paris on September 3, 1783.

Maybe they’d already had the gear made up and couldn’t get a refund.

They needed a federal holiday for July.

My sense of smell is weird. Even if I know what the smell is related to, I cannot always determine its source.

Someone come take my credit card away. I just ordered over $500.00 worth of fabric. That's in addition to what I already have. Yikes!
