I never get a headache with them, but the first time I had one it scared me so much because I had no idea what it was and I thought I was having a stroke. I've had several of these ocular migraines too. Any similar stories would be appreciated! She said that it could only be simple partial seizures or migraines. so I'm really stressed!!)ĭoes anyone have anything similar to this? I'm going to call my neuro today to see if it's strange that the dots haven't disappeared. They seemed to disappear when I wasn't stressed out during the summer, but have reappeared this year (I'm in a one year Master's program and am job hunting, etc. I am currently taking 500 mg of Keppra 2x day but am still seeing the black dots. My EEGs (30 min and 24 hour ambulatory) came back slightly abnormal, but other tests (MRI, corotid artery) were totally fine. Eventually, I got nervous enough to go to the neuro about it and she tested me for epilepsy. It lasts about 10 seconds and then disappears. Althogether, I have only had 3 of these migraines.Īfter my first migraine, however, I started noticing that almost daily I would see a single black dot in the center of my vision when I'd blink.
They told me I had experienced an ocular migraine so they sent me home.Īfter about 6 months I had another similar experience and then went another year before having another. During this time I also had trouble reading, which scared me, so I went to the hospital. I had a blind spot and sparkling lights for about 20 minutes. It started out as a small blank spot in the front of my vision and then spread out to my peripheral vision. About three years ago I had my first ocular migraine.
