I actually didn't know this, or at least remember you telling me about it. But we've discussed a lot so you probably did before

I know what you can ask her... why is it that I had auras back in 2000 about 4 times, but never again saw them? I never had headache with them, but it has been a mystery to me why I've never again experienced it (not the flashing lights, but 1 eye going gradually gray to losing all sight in it, and seeing what appeared like a crescent moon in my eye for about 20-30 minutes, and then gradually it just disappeared and my eyesight returned.

I understand they are related to migraine, but why would I experience that during a specific time frame, never to experience it again (thankfully)? Are auras attributed to certain things (food, environment)?
