I just got back from lunch and now I can't reeally read anything. Seems like there are spots before my eyes on both eyes. Am I goiong to die?

I thought it was just from the glare from the car, but its worse than that... and it hasn't gone away in about 7 or 8 minutes.

WTF

***edit***

It was a migraine. It got worse until I couldn't see but about 5 degrees of peripheral vision in my left eye, so I decided to go to the doctor. By the time I jumped in my jeep, it was pretty much gone, and then my headache started. 18 hours later, its still hurting a bit...

could be the onset of a migraine.

yep, that is a bad sign for me... it means hardcore migraine coming on.

Can you stare at a spot, or does it move when you look at it?

If you can stare at it, it is very bad ... go to a doctor.

It was a migraine. I went home and stayed in bed from about 2 yesterday afternoon to about 4:30 this morning... still hurts a bit. I've never had migraines before, so I really had no clue...
