What Causes Dizziness And White Light In Visual Path?

At work today, I suddenly became very hot and dizzy, and then I started seeing a white light in my vision path. Like I had been staring at a light for too long, only I hadent been. I have a history of migranes, but this is frustrating. What could it be?

Hello !
Thank you for the question on HCM! I understand your concern.
I think you should not worry about this problem. In my opinion it may be related to migraine, also called a visual aura. It is common in migraine and can also not be associated with headache. All the other associating symptoms seem to be part of a migraine aura.
I would recommend you to have a neurological examination and a brain MRI , if the problem persists.
Hope to have been helpful!
Best wishes , Dr. Abaz Quka
