Research on the visual patterns that foreshadow migraines may reveal clues on how painful headaches arise from the brain even though it has no pain receptors.

    this is exactly what mine look like.
    mine fade in from a small point to a large dead spot and then fade back out to clear vision. when my vision is totally clear I know that I have about 20 to 30 minutes before the pain comes. it starts out as a dull ache and then gets to the point where I’d rather be dead over the course of half an hour or so. they typically last 3 to 4 hours.
    like another user said I found that just going to sleep is the best option.

    I never had a migraine until I was almost 30. I used to get regular headaches when I was younger but they weren’t bad at all.
    now I get these fucking migraines. lol
    at least they give me a little bit of warning though, I guess.

        lol mine went away too. i had a good 5 or so years with no issues at all until the migraines started. luckily they’re very infrequent so i can’t complain.

        kinda funny your stomach starts turning as an indicator. it’s so weird how different things are connected—especially when it comes to our brains.
