Hello,
It is important for performing a brain MRI, considering your clinical situation.
I would also recommend checking your thyroid hormone levels, blood electrolytes and performing an EEG for seizures.
Antiepileptic drugs may need to be started if you are not already taking them.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
