Neurologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Your symptom description does not fit any particular disease. So next thing would be to be examined by a doctor for various things like heart rate, blood pressure, balance and coordination. These things can give some clue. Other than that some basic tests like blood hemoglobin and serum electrolytes would be of help. If there has been a stressful life event recently following which you started having all these than treatment would be completely different. Consult a general physician or neurologist.
Good luck.
