Hello and welcome to HCM,
Inability to walk and inability to keep your balance is suggestive of disorder of inner ear rather than a heart attack or any other cardiovascular disorder.
I suggest you to consult an ENT specialist for clinical assessment of the inner ear and relevant investigations.
Continue with your anti-hypertensive treatment.
Fullness in the right temple region could be due to raised blood pressure.
Thus, get your blood pressure monitored regularly to detect high blood pressure and its appropriate management.
Thanks and take care
