What Causes Floaters In The Line Of Vision Along With Headache?
Hello – Today before lunch I was at the office. I started getting a fuzzy large floater in my vision. The floater (one towards the right) wasn’t black but rather almost kind of a squiggly light. It lasted about 30 minutes. I left the office and went to lunch. While at lunch I had a slight headache. I don’t ever get headaches but I wasn’t concerned because yesterday I received Botox and figured the floaters and the headache were caused from the injections. In the middle of lunch my friend was asking me if I knew a certain person. She addressed this person by name. I know the person very well because I work with them every day, however I knew in my mind I knew this person but couldn’t remember who it was...just that I knew I worked with them. After that, I went to ask her if she knew someone and when I got to the point where I would say the name, I couldn’t remember it. Again, this is someone I know very well but couldn’t remember their name. Within five minutes, I remembered everyone and went back to normal. Should I be concerned?
Transient ischemic attack is a condition to consider in your case.
So, I think you should be evaluated further with brain MRI, cardiac work up and Neurologist's evaluation in order to evaluate correctly this possibility even to exclude it.In some cases, TIA may herald a stroke, don't underestimate it.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
