I had what was called a "mini stroke" just about 3 years ago and it showed up due to dizziness and the inability to stand up okay and also not being able to walk in a straight line. I called 911 and woke up the wife to tell her and then went out front to wait. The responders got there in a minute or so since we live just up the street from a fire station.

By the time they got there I was having trouble speaking normally and once in the back of the ambulance the young lady said it looked like a stroke and they took me to the big stroke center in San Diego. Seems my BP was about 75 over 40 which seemed a bit low to me and I ended up staying for two weeks. A few months later a stress test showed all the arteries around the heart were 90% blocked so I had quad bypass surgery.

So my point is I hope you get an MRI, blood flow tests and all that stuff to see what might be wrong?
