See a doc: It might be nothing of concern, but if you are having headaches with pupillary changes you really need to be evaluated right away.

I have had a chronic migraine lasting 5 days associated with nausea and light headedness. The pain is debilitating and also noticed when it reaches its peak my left pupil dilates (unequal pupils). Could this just be a migraine or is imaging necessary?

I have been waking up with my right pupil bigger than the left( it only last about 30 mins). It started a couple months ago but has only happened a handful of times. I also get a migraine/headache when it happens. Should I see my PCP?
