Seeing rainbows!

[LJ-Bain]

I am starting to see rainbow circles in my left eye prior to my regular seizures that I am so used to.
it has been so long since I have experienced anything new!
Hello new aura?
Hello new brain involvement?
Gotta love how seizures keep you guessing.
They do make life interesting.

Rainbows! LJ, you should keep your eye out for a pot of gold.

It's been a while! Were you ever able to get a diagnosis? Siezers aside, I hope you and your family are doing well.otherwise.

I love it when new things start happening! Their just so much fun! Don't you wish they'd happen more often?

I'd ask your neuro about it. I've had things that started happening and it was due to a med that I'd been on, things don't start to happen right when you first start taking it, or maybe one you've just started taking. I've told my neuro about new things and sometimes he'll lower the dosage of the med that he thinks could be causing it and they might go away. If not and it's something I can't handle he'll take me off the med and switch me to something else.

It's unusual that it's in just the one eye. Even though it's most likely seizure-related, it might be worth getting your eyes checked out.

That's unusual. I've started getting a new aura, and I've been twitching more, but seeing rainbows? Even if it's annoying, it has to be kinda cool sometimes. You could have a lot of fun messing with people. "Do you see a rainbow?" "No, where is it?" " in my eye" or something like that.

I have very inconsistent vision due to my seizures. My eyes still test ok. My left eye (when closed at night) sometimes has fireworks going on inside, and sometimes half-moons that "travel" from the inner part of the eye to the outer. The right eye for the most part does not have this going on. The colors are not quite a rainbow (no reds), but it still is interesting to "watch." I can't watch fireworks in real life (seizure triggers), so this makes up for it.

I can watch fireworks, but only in small chunks. I have to stop watching every 5 min or so. Which is annoying because in my old house, on the Fourth of July, even with my shades closed I could see the flashes while I was in bed. That was not a fun night! The people in my area did fireworks leading up to and after the fourth also. We had four days of fireworks which for me meant 4 days of bad seizures.

I just had an experience the other day that was similar, but it was in both eyes. It was almost like looking through a toilet paper tube, almost like tunnel vision but the toilet paper tube was a swirling pattern of multicolored lights. Unfortunately, no pot of gold, but the seizure waited until I layed down in bed and closes my eyes. The colors and lights I saw with my eyes closed were incredible, this was a completely different experience for me too. I've seen stars from photo-sensitivity and dehydration but this was cool. I could not move any part of my body other than my eyelids, but almost euphoric while it happened.

I hate the non able to move makes me panic..the last time I had coloured lights that were incredible I had to roll it and put roach on it before
