Mainly asking the people who have migranes or similar experiences that I am having lately.
I was under the impression that migranes lasted a while, and you see white for a while. Maybe that's accurate, I dunno. But that's not what I'm having.
It used to happen about once every month or two starting about a year ago, but now in he past 3-4 weeks it has jumped to 1-5 times per day.
Here is what happens: Just out of the blue, sometimes I can feel it coming on about 4-5 seconds before it happens, a portion of my brain just hurts immensely. I can't recall where it happened before but I thought it varied, but the last about 10 times it has happened, it always been on the left side of my head...about 45degrees if looking at me, right in the middle from front to back. about the size of a child's fist. it feels like someone has just grabbed my brain and is squeezing it for about 4-10 seconds and then lets go. Sometimes the pain just stops 100%, couldn't even tell anything happened, other times I can tell it happened in the area it did. While it happens if I put my hand against it I can feel throbbing. The throbbing stops after the pain stops.
So is that a migrane? My stress level definately has gone up considerably in the past month or two so I'm guessing that's what's causing it. Just one and half more months and I'll be out of this class (definately the most difficult class I've ever taken in any subject....a college probability course for those interested.)
I'll most likely be making a doctors appointment when I get the time to go, as I'm a little scared I could hemorage.
