	As a sufferer myself I was wondering if people would be willing to share what they experience and the after effects. I start with a tiny blurry spot in my vision, this grows with zig zaggy coloured flashing edges. until it passes out of the side of the eyes... If I take Migraleve, I have a stuffy nose, acid stomach that day, and the next symptoms almost like a hang over, if I bend down my head hurts I also find my sight is bad.. If don't take Migraleve, it's the "axe in the head" headache getting worse and worse, light and sound intolerance until about 4 hours later I am violently sick, then just feeling generally yuck
