Any of you get these? I've had about ten of them in the last twenty years. I've had a cluster of them recently, and I'm having a big one now.
One happened a few days ago when at 11,000 feet. The next day, to show my daughter what they're like, I loaded this video (which is quite accurate):
When I watched it, bang, I got another one.
At the start, my fovea is blanked out and I can't read. I have to have faith that it will go away, and it always does.
Luckily, I don't get the actual migraines, as do two of my sisters.
From this ER forum, I see that I had my first one around 2006:
