Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would explain that your symptoms could be related to TIA (transient ischemic attacks). Focal epilepsy seizures can not be excluded either. For this reason, I would recommend performing some other tests besides the brain MRI:

-a Doppler ultrasound of the carotid arteries
-a resting ECG and cardiac ultrasound
-an EEG
-thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid gland dysfunction
-blood electrolytes for possible imbalances.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
