High BP, Sensation Of Drooling In Mouth, No Numbness, Memory Issues. On Suitable Diet. What Is Wrong?

In the last couple of months I have had a sensation of drooling on the left side of my mouth, but when I check it is dry.
I do not have any numbness, drooping or other discomfort on my face. I have high blood pressure but have been treated for at least 10 years. I am 66. I have been on an eating and exercise program for the last 4 months and have lost 23 pounds. I follow the food guide and eat the required daily amounts. I walk at least 300 minutes a week.
The only other problem is my memory which is not what it used to be but I assume that is age related.
Should I have this checked out?
Thank you
