That is pretty much how I am. I wear sunglasses even in over cast weather. I also have issues sometimes with fluorescent lights, such as in a office atmosphere where the ceilings are low. After so long my eyes are in pain. In a retail type situation the lights don't bother me as much, but I do get sensory overload often because I also have issues with a lot of perfumes and colognes. I will usually have some sort of mini flare after shopping. It doesn't last long, maybe a few hours.
I suffer with migraines..it can come in different ways ...the pain can be very very bad you are very sensitive to light any noise... can make you vary nauseous ...and sick to your stomach..effects your eye sight sometime I can not see properly...the pain can be so bad that you want to scream ... and there is hardly nothing unless you are knocked out that will take the pain away...you feel lethargic...

My headaches are usually related to barometric pressure especially with heat. Sometimes I get frontal headaches which warn me to go rest with cool compress on forehead. I also get tightness and pain at base of neck where tendons and ligaments feel like hard cords,that it causes pain to touch.
I used to get much more headaches wear my Right side of my head felt like icicles shooting down my Rt. Face/ arm ( MRI normal)but once lyrica or cymbalta at full dose for a while ( sorry I cannot recall which just that both at high doses ) my usual headaches of late stopped and doc related these headaches to nerve pain and she attributed these kinds of headaches to nerve pain.
I get visual migraines from bright lights and sunlight. I wear sunglasses to prevent them in the sun. Eye stress brings them on and i get the zigzag lines or looks like I'm under water and i ger blind spots. Only last about 1/2 hour. I hardly ever get a head migraine. Most pain in eyes.
