A colleague of mine described an experience he hadn't had before whilst we were having lunch yesterday.
He is 25 years old and considered he had suffered his first Ocular Migraine.
I explored Wikipedia and wondered if the visual symptoms he presented might have been that of a Scintillating Scotoma?
The questions I ask are;
- Should he visit his GP;
- Is it likely to be 'lifestyle induced' (he drinks moderately, likes a take-away (doesn't smoke) but has recently taken up regular, demanding physical exercise with a local gym);
- Consider it might be an indication of an underlying medical condition?
Or all three?
Otherwise he is (as far as I am aware) perfectly healthy.
Kind regards
FOK
