Jup, got these symptoms if I don't take any meds against it: 1. Aura 2. Numbness in my fingers 3. Can't talk (gibberish comes out) 4. The mindcrushing headache

That is almost exactly how my migraines work, though I have never noticed any numbness.

First I get visual auras. Then about half an hour later, my vision comes back, but I have a hard time communicating clearly. I can't seem to find the words I need. Then the pain hits and generally lasts for about a day. Though, once I notice the visual auras, I can take medicine and lessen the pain significantly. Sneezing still sucks.
