Aura without headache a few weeks after delivery. Why?

Question

I think it was something like a migraine attack but without the pain. I woke up at 2 am and saw this little dot in front of my left eye. It got bigger and bigger and looked like a zigzag pattern. After 30 min or so all was over.
Up to now I never had it again.
My ob/gyn told me not to worry.

Answer 1

There is such a thing as Migraine Aura without Headache. It may have been a reaction to hormonal changes in your body. If your Ob/Gyn wasn't concerned and it hasn't happened again, then let it be. But if it reoccurs or if you have other symptoms, consult your primary doctor.
