Do migraines change over time?

I haven't had a migraine in quite a while. I used to have them almost daily for years and now I have them once in a blue moon. I've had migraines since I was about 8 years old.

Normally, I have them on my left side, sometimes I'll have ocular migraines (left side), most times just the regular kind for me.

This morning, I noticed the "twinkling" lights in my RIGHT eye. The aura wasn't as pronounced as it usually is on the left side, nothing hurt at the time, and it was gone within 20 minutes (like normal).

My head started to hurt (left side) shortly after the aura in my right eye finished. Very strange.

Should this be something I need to bring to my doctor's attention? I appreciate your comments.

Hi Ann -- thanks for responding. I feel better knowing that they do change...I was just rather taken aback this morning, no panic though. I've had a 'dull' migraine all day, but I'm ok.

I'll bring it up with my doctor if it happens again.

Thanks again,

~S.
