Default Vision Loss
Okay, this is getting weird.

While working on the computer today, I started getting a blurry cresent-shaped area of flashing lights in the left field of vision of both eyes that progressed to where it consumed about 40% of my vision. Don't know if I could have driven a car at that point. It lasted about 1/2 hour then as quick as it came, went away.

I talked to my neurologist who thought it was an atypical migraine (absolutely no other symptoms), then talked to my PM doc who has treated RSD/CRPS patients for 30 years who said it was definately related to RSD/CRPS. I have NEVER had anything like this happen for my last 53 years!

Has anyone else had anything similar to this and been told it was RSD/CRPS related?
It was a little un-nerving....
