I guess I have a question about the migraines. Is the change I had in how the migraine came on something I should be concerned about?

For years, I've had 2 very distinctive kinds of migraines.....ones without aura where I can usually get away with taking an otc med and they are effective in quashing the migraine, and ones with aura. The ones with aura come on with flashing colored lights that start off small, grow to take over all of the eye and then go away, but I need a prescription migraine med to help with those kinds.

The one I had last night had the aura of blurred vision in both eyes. No flashing lights and no interruption in vision in either eye. I knew by the magnitude of the pain that I needed my prescription med for it.

Is this something that I need to tell my dr about in that it was different?

Thanks!
