I had what I think was a migraine yesterday. However, each time I have one the recovery time is longer. Today my vision is still somewhat blurred and my right arm is somewhat weak. I am a 53-year old white female with isolated incidents of high blood pressure (148/90 at most). My question is should I go see a Dr. and if so what should I expect, just referrals for tests?

 

Optional Information:
Female , Age: 53

Already Tried:
Amerge, tylenol and ibuprofen, yesterday during the migraine.

Reply to GAIL's Post: Your reply did not come quite soon enough. I ended up going to urgent care and was immediately sent the the hospital for an MRI. There is a white abnormality on the MRI, am waiting to be scheduled with a neurologist.
