Mine's prettier than your's

by ralph bolgiano
(fulks run, va)

My first one ever. It was in constant motion with the chevrons dancing side to side. Lasted 20 minutes, no headache at all. I recently ripped two out of the four tendons in my rotator cuff.... probably not related but again my first one and I'm 62.

CHEVRONS
by: Anonymous

"Chevrons" is a very good word for those shapes. I've gone through all these migraine art pieces and have found, like this one... the extreme similarity between about six or seven of them.

Perfect example!
by: Jeanette

My first aura was exactly like that, minus the color. I explain it as static on the television so it's more silver, black, and white. Then it moves to my peripheral vision so I can't see above or below me, then it goes to the sides. After that the headache kicks in. I recently have had little dots of these "auras" all throughout my migraine time, not only the beginning. It's strange.

Real
by: Emma

Your picture reminds me of my typical migraine aura, but not because of the shape or colors. It is because it is something that is so brilliant, so real to all us migraine sufferers, and no one else can see it! People act like you're crazy for seeing the aura patterns, but until they experience it, your picture is a really good representation of the experience for them to understand.

Fascinating
by: James

Thanks for sharing this. It's fascinating how the visual aura in so many people is so different, and yet often shares similarites.
