Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I first had a visual migraine in 2004, then nothing for about 4 years, then about one a year. But in the last year I've had three. Is this something to be worried about?

I'm having loads at the moment, several a week whereas it used to be every couple of years - I'm putting it down to menopausal hormones and stress

Just a thought you arn't asthmatic are you - I had my inhaler changed as the one of the ingredients in it was causing visual migraine and apparently it was a common side effect. It was a combined inhaler { purple one } they changed it to an orange one and the migraines stopped.

No, I'm not taking any medication for anything at all. I'll just take it as a sign that I'm a bit worn down!

Got something to say?
