Before I start panicking and running off down to Moorfields Eye hospital sobbing that i'm going blind (which is what I considered about 5 mins ago), I thought I'd check on here and see what everyone else might think.
Right this second, I'm looking at the screen and I can only see about half of it. As I can feel a headache coming on, I was thinking that it could migraine with an aura. I got the aura about 20 mins ago where everything that i'm not looking directy at goes into a blindspot.
Does that sound about right?

As an aside, you shouldn't be on any combined form of hormonal contraception if you get aura migranes - they increase your risk of stroke dramatically.
