Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health care magic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concern. I would strongly recommend you to get a CT Scan of brain done to rule out the possibility of a chronic subdural hematoma which could have been missed till date.

Please upload the report and I will guide you accordingly.
