Silent Migraines today - weather?

[Karmacamelia]

Have had two silent migraines today with a gap of half an hour between them, vision very distorted but now cleared. Thunderstorms forecast so wondering if this is the reason?? Has anyone else had them today?

I always get migraines if there is low pressure, so when rain is forecast or it is overcast. Sometimes they are silent which is a relief other times full migraine. I have had migraines since I was a child and I know my triggers and what works to stop it or keep it short. I can literally feel it starting as a sort of headache and can tell the second I know it will develop into the migraine.

It was something I was taught to do, pay attention, write down how it felt etc.

I don’t get migraines but I get bad headaches before a storm or rain and when the air pressure falls. I’d have thought that high pressure would cause headaches but apparently it’s the sudden lowering that causes problems.

I also get headaches in hot weather and I have no idea why.

Yeah low pressure messes with my head and causes silent migraines (though I didn’t realise they were this though until reading this). Not as bad as it used to be but still a pita especially with humid weather.

I haven’t had a migraine since menopause a couple of years ago, but I have a tell-tale pressure building over my right eye and the right side of my skull today. That is definitely the beginning of a migraine for me

I don’t get migraines anymore do get headaches in stormy weather/humidity not always silent migraine symptoms but sometimes. Pressure affects me. Thought it was same for everyone.

I used to get migraines without aura when younger, now I just usually get silent Migraines, but in the last half hour I can feel a headache coming on 😖

I got a migraine yesterday after a walk in the patchy rain-to-bright-sun.

Started as a missing patch of vision in my left eye, then a kaleidoscopic floated in that eye, cleared up and then 30 minutes later BOOM. Pain and pressure behind the eyes, nausea, vomit, conked out and now just a sore head

I was in bed all day Sunday with a migraine. I didn't realise they were connected to weather.

Yes, this heavy weather always sets my auras off, my sister has been getting them almost daily the last few days too.

Mine are similar to this, the zig zagging/crown of thorns effect moves around in a circular way, always starts top right hand corner of eye

Used to get that with migraines but luckily they stopped when I was 30 and I rarely get them now. I do get the odd one. Think mine were hormonal and BCP related too.

Yes! This is what I meant by “kaleidoscope”

I’d never had it like that before yesterday. Previous auras had just been fuzzy kind of static or “nothing” at the peripheries of my field of vision
