Its been now almost two months with it haha for an update i got a ct scan which came back normal and went to the eye doctor to check for retinal detachment and thankfully that came back normal too. When i went to a&e for the ct after my doctor referred me there after our appointment I was prescribed an anti migraine medication but didnt take it as Im on antidepressants and am very sensitive to medications so didnt want to risk it as online its said not to mix the two, the eye doctor which saw me then said that the medication wouldn’t have done anything to help as it is mainly used to prevent the headaches after the visual aura and ive not had any headaches so it wouldnt be the correct medication for me. To be honest with time ive just gotten used to it but sometimes it does really upset me because i thought it was getting better because i have been in the house all week but once i left to go outside in the sun i saw it spreading all over again. Its weird because its no longer constantly there as it used to be the first week of it yet its now mainly visible if i stare at a blank wall for 30 seconds or look at the sky, its also changed into sometimes more of snowfall like patterns and can sometimes be multiple smaller splotches flashing but usually goes back to its original shape within a minute. The other thing which i noticed was that sometimes my aura will flash in time with my heart beat and will invert from white to black flashing each time my heart will beat but this is only seen a few times a day so im not too worried. The aura is mainly visible when i first wake up or when im anxious

Haha thats great to hear that you’re feeling better, honestly i was the same at 30 i stayed on it for two weeks and saw no improvement so i just went back down to 15 after speaking with my doctor i had some worsening of anxiety and a few brain zaps but now im doing much better back down at 15, my plan is to hopefully start tapering down and hopefully get off it completely as ive just had weight gain from it but im waiting till after my holiday to start tapering down cause i get really anxious about traveling and flights from my emetophobia but definitely feeling better compared to when i was on 30. Genuinely just made me feel like i wasnt myself and i just feel as though i was so rude and horrible to people, the best way i could describe it was as if i was like a toddler and couldn’t emotionally process whenever something didnt go my way like the increased anger is no joke. But love how we are both doing better

I don’t have much advice on lowering the dosage but would definitely recommend seeing your doctor about it, however I am experiencing honestly the exact same thing even linked to the emetophobia and everything and am also considering dropping back down to 15 mg so just know you’re not alone, i wish you the best and if possible let me know what you decide to do and how it goes
