Fellow migraine sufferers need help today! Fearing th worst!

[Maisie77]

I am 20 weeks pregnant and am on my second bizarre migraine, unlike I've had with previous children. I never get them when I'm not pregnant. Anyway, at 13 weeks I had this aura where things looked super bright and just strange. The part that scares me and has me obsessing is after the initial aura I feel like people words don't sound quite right and my language even doesn't seem right. This lasts about 60 minutes and then disappears. Anyway, yesterday I had another strange episode like the first one. I'm trying to rat ionize it all in my head, but my obsessions are taking over and I'm fearing something serious with the lack of control over my language. I shared the first episode with my ob and she thought it was just migraine, pregnancy related and atypical. . I'm struggling to believe! Please help if you've been down this road, need support today!

Definitely sounds like a migraine.  You can feel out of it for a day or so afterwards sometimes.  Sometimes migraines even mimic strokes.  Scary stuff.  But still not worth worrying about :)

Molly, thanks for your  post,  hope you're right. After showering the morning, I had another aura that hung on for 15 minutes or so. It's probably nothing, but now I've crossed my fears from ms to brain tumors.....so stupid and draining, but that's my OCD brain. I was doing so great th last couple weeks too.
