Best Answer

Stomach migraines (also called abdominal migraines) are a type of migraine where the key feature of the migraine is nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, rather than the key feature being head pain.

Abdominal migraines are a common migraine variant pre-puberty. Many children who have abdominal migraines in their youth begin to have common or classic migraines as they reach young adulthood.

Abdominal migraines are treated with the same types of medication used to treat other types of migraine headache, although when the patient is under 18 years of age, there are limits as what to doctors will prescribe.

Will peripheral vision return?

If peripheral vision is lost before or during a migraine attack, and you have been diagnosed as having migraines, then - yes, vision should return. Migraine auras come in many forms. For some it is flashing lights, for others it is tunnel vision, blurry vision, greying out of vision, etc.. These are temporary visual disturbances, usually lasting no more than a couple of hours at most. For some people, the aura can stretch on for several weeks, but these are rare cases. If you have not been diagnosed as having migraines, and you have a sudden loss of vision, then you need to see your doctor immediately. There may be something else going on that needs to be taken care of.
