General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If the symptoms have recurred after resolving completely then you should be reassessed to make sure that there are no additional changes.

This would likely require another CT scan of the brain.

Any further treatment would depend on the findings.

I hope this helps
