Hi Folks: This is my first time posting here. Last night I was cooking dinner and all of a sudden saw bright, flashing lights and then had a strange zig zag (moving) pattern in my vision. It involved both eyes as I covered one to try to figure out what was happening. I feared I was having a stroke. I sat down a minute and went to call 911 and realized it was starting to improve. The entire episode lasted about 20 minutes. After "googling" I found a video of exactly what I saw and it said it was from an Opthalmic Migraine. So, looking for info about this and possible triggers as to what may have caused it? All I came up with is I had eaten an avocado and they were on the list of migraine causing foods. Anyone have this type of migraine? Thanks in advance~ Dowa
