Yesterday in the middle of painting the bathroom, I noticed some sparkles in my vision.
I thought, "Oh no...an aura." I took two Tylenol Migraine tablets and an ibuprofen, but it still developed into a migraine. Not as bad as sometimes, though, thank goodness.
I lay down for a while and it eventually went away.
Last night I couldn't sleep and had one of those night terrors. It took a little longer than usual to realize where I was before going back to bed. Still couldn't sleep, so I'm dragging today.
We just had lunch at Pizza Inn which was good, now headed home for a nap.
What's going on in your world? Hope the temp has cooled down where you are if you're in the middle of this heat wave.

Yeah, whatever mine are, I can't find an exact definition. They seem closer to nightmares than night terrors, but it's also like sleepwalking.

@RubyHawk They seem to happen about once a month.

@1creekgirl I used to sleep walk and have nightmares but that was years ago. Hope you don’t have them often.

@1creekgirl Sometimes I do, but most of the time is more a problem to my vision.

@1creekgirl I am pushing thru it. We have our second covid boosters booked for this afternoon, and I am taking it easy before I go for that.

Sorry you had a migraine and night terrors. Have you talked to a doctor about your dreams? Nothing much going on here.

No, but I'll probably talk to my doctor.

For many years, that's how it was with me, too. Got the zig zag flashing lights, but no headache. Then it started giving me the migraines after the lights.

@1creekgirl That’s great your migraine passed. Here the heat plummeted from 30C to 15C in a very short time and it’s set to remain there thankfully.

No, not yet. The only pattern I see is that it happens about once a month, but no triggers that I can see.
