My experience-Health anxiety, migraines and TIA anxiety
Anyone else with anxiety and/or specifically health anxiety? I had one migraine 14 years ago with visual aura and never again. I got covid last December and have since had 2 full blown migraines w/ aura and one silent migraine with aura. Every time the aura hits i panic that I’m having a TIA/mini stroke and set myself into a full blown anxiety attack with the migraine.
The internet is a mess of conflicting information. This morning I had a positive visual aura, the like have circle of neon streaks and kaleidoscope shapes in both eyes. About 30 minutes later the aura stopped and my left hand was completely pins and needles at which point I lost it thinking I was having a stroke and hyperventilated. The hand sensation lasted about 10 minutes give it take and once that went away the headache started to set in. Was what felt like my right side at first but once it hit peak it was the whole top of my head and some headache soreness radiating into my upper teeth. The whole ordeal lasted about 5 hours until the headache subsided and I was left with mental fog for a few hours.
I’m going to call for a neurologist on Tuesday obviously but am I right in reassuring myself this is classic migraine with aura progression? A TIA is all or nothing with full intensity sudden onset and short lived right?
