Flashing lights?

Since Friday I have seen flashing green and blue lights. Has anyone else seen something like this. Also, if it does not resolve, do you think I should see a regular doctor or my pdoc. It is the strangest thing.

Weird, I have never had this. Eyes open or closed?

Eyes open and looking straight ahead. There is one light beside the other.

It sounds like a neurological change so you would be best served by an internist who might even suggest an opthamologist, Also call your pharmacist incase you are having a med reaction

Are they tiny lights right in your field of vision?

They are more to the left in the left eye. This is great. Something else to contend with. I already have vision problems to where I can't see anything at times. I don't drive due to this. I don't need anything else. I hope that it passes.

This could be a warning sign that you may be haveing micro seizures get your butt to a doctor. Take vitamins espacially those with b complex.
This could be seriuse.

I had seizures
and that was how they started flashing lights
It was from too much welbutrin and complications from a head injury.

I haven't seen them before. They are like strobe lights. It is like a flashback of being at a club and starring at one of those spinning strobe lights. I've been seeing the lights and staggering aroud with slurred speech.

I've never had them, but they do sound rather serious.

Hope you can see a good neurologist as soon as you can. Best of luck to you ...

I see flashing red and blue lights all the time...

...then when I get on scene to the fire or car accident and get out of the truck it goes away.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
