The left side of my head behind my ear has been hurting over a year
I wake up with a headache - at night and if I fool a sleep on the coach . I see a black dot that jumps around .
I have had a mri , they didn't find anything .
I have suffered with migraine all my life since my teens, in my mid 60's now. I started getting visual aura before the migraines. I've tried prescription med, they are useless and make me feel worse than the migraine. For the last 20 years I find I can control them with caffeine intake. try to keep it constant everyday, 2 cups of coffee or tea a day, no more or less. i always keep a can of coke handy, if I feel headache or visual coming, drink coke or tea, coffee, gone in 20 min. Yesterday I have a bad migraine, today I have a dark spot in my right eye off to one side. From what I can see on google, this is possibly from a blood clot in the nerve of the eye. One dr describes it as a stroke ! Pretty scary. I feel ok, just normal for me to feel a little off after a bad migraine so I'll see how I feel over the next hours or days.
As for me, I have a bad neck. I saw black dots. I was told I possibly have migraines....Of and on I have migraines of the eyes due to a bright sunny day or snow. However, I never had black dots in both eyes before. The neck pain is terrible as it is at the base of my skull and is now going into the forehead, cheek bone on the right side of my face.
surgery. I developed scar tissue and that’s what causes my spots. I’ve yelled thinking there were bugs on me or l something moving across floor out of the corner of my eye. Good luck
