You really need to get a full work up and if they say you need medicine you need to take it ,go to the er ,you need to find out and if nothing is wrong then you need to believe it,because your mind can play bad tricks on you and you can not live like this , they will not let you leave if any thing is wrong with you ,so you must get help. We can not tell if there is any thing wrong with you ,you must see a doctor,so please get some help, because I care,hugs Shirley

You need to see your primary doctor if the episode is over.The E.r. will do nothing for you ,that is probably why your mom didnt take you.I have had many episodes like that but only a doctor can tell you what is happening and preferably a doctor who knows you.I understand the anxiety but you need to relax because he anxiety will make things worse.Please get that checked out ,I am older and suffered many years with migraines and if that is the problem they are scarie but you can live through them.Hugs and thoughts to you.

I was diagnosed with Basilar migraines... they start in the back of my neck to my head and spread... I have visual auras 24/7 that never go away.... it's rare and what do you know... happened to me. Any who... my Dr. put me on Verapamil for the migraines I was getting (pain.. not the vision) and it took them away for the most part. A work up is good so they can rule out other things that cause the aura. Hang in there and monitor the foods you are eating too for now.

As everyone else said I think you need a full work up.
Also just to throw it out there sometimes docs are dopes when it come to migraines and you have to compare it to something more tangible to them. A perfect example is my last ER visit when I had whiplash... the docs weren't going to give me anything until I said "My head feels worse than my concussion from '06" Then it took less than two minutes for a nurse to come in with something.
My mother, whom is a nurse, explained that most doctors can't take the zero to ten pain scale seriously when ten is the worst pain of your life. People constantly say it's a ten. Persistance is key I guess.

As for the feeling like you're having a stoke, oh boy have I been there. I had a migraine for 3 days, it went away and came back in the snap of a finger. I had a head cold at the time and for some reason one of my tonsils was swollen. Needless to say when it hit me I thought I was going to die, but in my paniced state I stayed sitting quietly as I was at a friend's.

I get the auras with vision disturbances and have gotten them since teenager. They do cause anxiety and i try to live thru them. The post aura is not good for me either is seem to be out of it down depressed a little a day or two after. Mine seems to come on if weather changes and certain foods i eat chocolate, red wine, aged cheese . Its a terrible thing but it does happen. I had one yesterday while playing golf i think caused by bright lights sun and today i feel like a piece of shit. Good luck to you

The same thing happened to me and no one would help me either. I wish I would have called and ambulance my self. I swore I would if it ever happened again. It did and I didn't. dont be like me. go see doctor so you don't have to wonder all the time. I did do some research and migraines can do this type of thing but it would be nice to know.
