Today I had #ExplodingHeadSyndrome and #MigraineAura, so technically that visual and auditory hallucinations in one day, without chemicals or psychosis.

I just did a fun anatomical/symptomological art workshop with @lia_pas Here’s what I came up with in regards to my headaches and scintillating scotoma. #poetry #anatomy #poetry #scotoma #brain #neuralgia #headache #migraine #MigraineAura #art #ChronicPain #IndigenousCreatives

I have a neurological condition called scintillating scotoma. I’ve also had it referred to as migraine status aura. Its kinda like tinnitus of the eyes. (I have tinnitus too). It’s a chronic condition which means I always see sparkling lights in part of my vision. I used to have it so bad that it was like a strobe show plus fireworks 24/7. Sometimes straight lines, like laser beams, would shoot out in front of me and I’d jump away from them. I wasn’t able to read because the light show covered up all the words. I’ve noticed that since having COVID, it’s getting worse again. I can still read, but the light show is creeping larger and larger. It’s worse when I’m in bright environments. I really hope it doesn’t get as bad as it used to be. It is impossible to concentrate with constant built-in fireworks. Right now, it’s more like the sun reflecting off a rippling lake. I wouldn’t be surprised if COVID is what brought this back. #NeurologicalDisorder #ScintillatingScotoma #MigraineAura #COVID #Disability #Blindness

I've had a couple of visual migraine /migraine aura episodes over the last couple of days - quite minor and short lived compared to what I've had in the past.
One weird thing is, that I think I'm getting Phantosomia - smelling something that isn't there, in this case a leather-like smell, it's very faint, but it seems to precede the visual symptoms.
As usual the migraine is associated with stress, and as always there's no headache.If this carries on, I think it'll be a call to the doctor - which I can do without - particularly if I get sent back to the Neurologist again.
