What's Going On Inside?

Yesterday I had a lunchtime meeting, so it was about one o'clock when I went downstairs (well, down-elevator) to get a sandwich.  When I got back to my office, I sat down to eat and scan through some old documents (from 1990) that I'd found in my files.  I found it difficult to read - the page seemed bright and a bit disorienting, like those patterns that make you dizzy to look at.  After struggling a bit, I realized it wasn't the document, it was something in my head - creating a region of blurred vision.  When I closed my eyes I saw the same shape - very bright - and very not normal for me.  After 30-45 minutes, my vision gradually returned to normal, but I felt a little dizzy, or lightheaded.

An afternoon of tests and monitoring failed to reveal any problem.  Today I've felt tired and just a bit 'off,' but nothing specific.  I hope another good night's sleep will continue the improvement.
