temporary tunnel vision loss/temporary faint together with nausea with light
exposure to light (refrigerator florescent light or light from closed drapes) like when headed out of a dark room into direct sunlight outside causes immediate nausea. If not caught soon and take alka seltzer cold (which has aspirin, antihistamine, and a decongestant) within an hour droopy drowsy feeling, slow movement, throbbing pain under cheeks, bad sharp pain under eye brow bone, lose partial vision, or once fainted temporarily. Checked blood sugar, hba1c all normal 5.3 hba1c. Blood pressure is usually on the lower side possibly bc having hashimiotos thyroiditus for past 12 yrs and taking levothyroxine every day mornings . First couple episodes no headache. following times crown of head throbbing pain in addition to other symptoms like nausea, jaw pain.ice pack helps on crown of head. not enough help to surpass full blown walking sideways kind of episode.
while typing this throbbing pain still. Sorry about errors, have to wear 2 dark glasses. 1 on top of another minimum brightness on computer just to get by typing without getting nauseous. I am 45, just completed menopause. While hormones possibly have something to do with this, I'm miserable. crying. always been positive, now very sad. Anxious and always ensuring i have ibuprofen or aspirin in sight else I might faint.
having hard time sleeping after aspirin, but it wont work until I sleep.
Night time sleep was poor in dec 2019 around when I fainted. Have had vertigo while looking at blue light 2 years ago. It passed away after 3 months of taking salt water. I was just trying to overcome nausea back then.
It's been 4 months now and these episodes aren't reducing. every day is a battle. from the time i open refrigerator accidentally without wearing sunglasses when that blue light hits my upper portion of visibility to night.
They've given me sumatriptan to take. But I'm interested in homeopathy. Presence of anxiety causing comments by spouse or kid make me find a room and sit there alone. Dark room are my friends or late evening when street lights aren't up yet, but not bright.
I've had migraine ever since teenage. but they were 4 on a scale of 1-10. Haven't had the need to take over the counter medicines. Maybe bc my menses were so painful and i took painkiller then which possibly helped migraines too.
Homeopath has helped me in past when my wrists cartilage was torn. I have faith in homeopathy.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Is there any information I can give for anyone to be able to go over my case please. Will be very thankful as this silent /visual kind of migraine without real headaches as a warning are confusing.
Regards,
Ritia
(P.S - its evening 7pm now, and i feel very comfortable going for my walk without sunglasses. No harsh sunlight or heat).
