two nights ago woke up in middle of night with only TV on. Screen looked yellow.  blinked a few times and it faded away. closed eyes for a few minutes. did it again. very scared.  last night same thing again but this time color was orange.  then green.  each time faded away.  only at night. last night had light on also but still had effect. Never had anything like this before. extremely scary.... I am off for stress, and on medications. Dr. said not to worry but he doesnt know about last nights episodes. Do you know what could be causing this Dr.?
Thankyou in advance for your help.

Contact the MDs that are treating you to ask if it could be due to the medications. Also ask about a referral to a neurologist. Primary eye problems would be unlikely to cause those symptomsl

Thankyou for your advice.  I called the Dr. and he scheduled me for a Dopler Ultrasound,
next week checking circulation.  He said it isn't the medications but I am glad I asked.  Also as a follow up to you, I had it again Thusday night (Third night in a row) but it's Sunday now and I have'nt had it since, Praise God.  I just wanted you to know and to thank you again for being here.
