That's new to me, Steph. But I'm not consistent with auras, since I usually have a migraine. However with the bulged disk and diet changes I'm getting enough space for them to stop and start again, and my aura has verified itself as lights running up and down the outside edges of my vision.

I have had, when it's really bad, the inability to tell if my eyes are open or not, which is...I don't even know how that can be. But that is more like your thing?

Good going, Starsky. Perp just recognised your car parked right in front of his apartment so he got away to threaten another day. You suck worse than Dean Winchester.

But that is more like your thing?

Mine was just a split-second thing, like, I was *positive* I saw a rat, and then nothing was there. (And maybe there was a rat and it really did scuttle super-fast.) Like, one second I was sure Tim had 2 different shoes, and the next second they were obviously the same.

That's as best as I can explain it.

My dad gets just the migraine auras, without the pain. He had no idea what it was until I started getting migraines as a teenager and tried to explain them to him what they were like, and he recognized that as that weird feeling that he sometimes gets.

Non-migraine-related, I see things that aren't there out of the corner of my eyes a fair amount.

I just went out to dinner with my family, and in the ladies' room, painted on the wall, was "The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed..." I asked my dad to go into the men's room and see if there was anything painted on the wall. He gave me a weird look, but did it. The men's room had, "If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Minnow would be lost."

Yeah, a quick google is telling me that with an aura, sparklies, waviness, lines, and even repeating patterns that "unroll" like a window shade are common, but not seeing things that aren't there. This could just be a coincidence. Or it could have really been Jesus in the dog food.

That's as best as I can explain it.

Thinking more on it "I coulda swore I just saw..." is a thing I've experienced, but just chalked up to weirderies of the brain.

Huggy, you're involved in crime! How could you???

How are you watching these, ita?

Or it could have really been Jesus in the dog food.

That seems the most likely, really.

I think you have a country-western hit on your hands.

Auras, wavy lines (occular migraines), olfactory migraines, and once -- and hopefully never again -- an abdominal migraine. But no seeing actual things. More not seeing things as the blind-spots arrive.

Hoping it's just a coincidence.
