I'am not sure if you are serious about your migrane. But, a doctor would not tell you, you have a mini stroke. Go to a nuerologist for expert advice. Migranes/cluster headaches are herditary. Anti depressants are used. Optical migranes can cause blurred vision up to ten minutes or more. First onset of a mirgrane, or headache ,take Excedrine mirgrane. It truly works. Stay away from food that may cause the problem. Such as chocolate, nuts, etc. Your doctor should and most likely knows the current medications. There is a long list. I too have experienced many mirgranes. I don't have them anymore. Go to another doctor to get a second opinion. Mirgrane pain can be treated. blurred vision, upset stomach, chills and flu like symptons are quite common. Read as much as you can about migranes. Also your menstral cycle can induce migranes as well. Take care.
