I remember my first "aura" migraine...you are right it is scary stuff when the eye sight goes. I'm glad you didn't get too sick from it though....and the pain wasn't for too long of a time.
I get migraines often, but only get those with an aura on occasion...could be months and months between them. Just about any over the counter migraine med will help until the aura comes and then I have to take the immitrex and go to bed.
I've known some folks too who get the aura and never have any pain from them......funny how they affect people so differently.
I'm glad it was nothing more serious than the migraine!
