Typical duration 4-6 hrs but some can last 2-3 days and in many a prodrome and postdrome can add 2 additional days. Have neurologist handle this

Migraine visual auras usually last 20-40 minutes but the headache, if there is one, can be much longer. Your associated symptoms are not typical for a migraine, so after two weeks, it’s time to consult your doctor.
