Hello
You should be worried but not too much.
You may have .
1 Diabetes may be the one of the most foremost reason of this type of disease , so get in blood examination for blood sugar level .
2 Heart disease may be the one another reason so get in ECHO of heart with blood examination for cholesterol level as sometimes high cholesterol may be the reason.
3 Any lesion may be in the brain so get in MR I of brain.
In my opinion consult a physician and get his opinion as physical examination is important .
