    Suddenly it’s like the proverbial light bulb has clicked on. I’ve had migraines since forever. I thought mine were vision related and they might very well be but this makes a whole lot of sense too! My doc loves when I give myself a self diagnosis. She says she wont be surprised if one day I come tell her I have a rare prostate disease (I’m female)

    My memory loss isn’t temporary. Whatever it is completely gone.
    The MRI done of my brain showed white lesions or scars caused by my migraines. These scars destroy whatever brain matter they appear on. I can remember some things with such clarity and detail and then absolutely nothing about something else. Recently, I had a medical issue and to have a diagnostic mammogram. The medical office called me to say that I’d just had one in March 2013, was I having a different issue than my annual? I very much was but getting your boobs squished is not something you just totally forget! I made them show me the x-rays before I would believe them. I’ve had other “not quite right moments” like forgetting passwords or where I was driving to but eventually it comes to me. I do take 3 Topomax a night to prevent the migraines. Still have them every few weeks one after the other but not as often as it used to be. I’m just worried about my mind in the future!

    The whole idea of taking migraine medication, medicine that effects the brain and areas in an around the brain, just scares the heck out of me, what are they really doing to me, what are the long term effects? But like many migraine sufferers when you have a migraine you want it gone, and if medication is going to take the pain away, you are going to take that medication. Sometimes my migraines are so severe, I can’t even open my mouth to talk.

    Right now I’m researching Relpax and memory loss.
