My 12 year old came to me after a lacrosse tournament and began complaining about seeing a man running past him but when he looks, he isn't there. He describes it as a short dark figure and was seriously scared that he was seeing a ghost or a phantom. He has no psyciatric problems, is otherwise healthy and has had an appointment with the opthamologist who found no irregularities in his eyes other than a few floaters which, when described do not match the description of what my son is explaining. These figures are solid, happen in many different settings many times a day. Other than the disturbance and fear that he is being haunted or having hallucinations, my son has no other symptoms. The opthamologist jumped to ocular migranes without much exploration of any other issues. I've scheduled time with the neurologist because frankly, having a back ground in psychology, seeing things isn't normal. If it doesn't have a medical cause, its psychiatric and I can't imagine ocular migraines looking like figures running accross the room. Am I right to worry that this is more than ocular migraines or am I just being an over anxious mom?
