Anxiety and stress disorder to be considered too.
Detailed Answer:
Welcome back.
If the CT scan of the brain resulted okay, anxiety and stress disorder should also be considered.
However, a clinical examination by a Neurologist is still necessary in order to be sure that there's no neurological disorder that is causing such symptoms.
Hope this helps.
