Feeling Of Flashing Lights While Palpitation
I just experienced something that s never happened before. For about 2 minutes I was seeing flashing lights all around me as if there were 100 lightening bugs. It was really a weird vision experience and at the SAMs time I was having really strong palpitations. What do you think this means?
