Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

Symptoms you describe may be related to several different conditions, so, it is necessary to get evaluated further clinically by a Neurologist and probably by medical tests such brain-imaging, blood tests like hemogram, electrolytes, Vit B12 level etc. in order to achieve a correct understanding of what these symptoms mean.

Conditions that may be related to these symptoms include multiple sclerosis, partial seizures, transient ischemic attack, mini-stroke etc.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Greetings.
