Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I have gone carefully through your query.
The most probable causes of the symptoms you prescribed at your age (that should be excluded first) are:
-Anemia due to heavy periods or not sufficient iron intake, a full blood count would be of help.
-Reactive hypoglicemia, which is confirmed by measuring the blood sugar when you have these episodes of blurred vision, off balance ect
-Electrolite disturbances: Ca, Na, K ect
-Neurological problems, a neurological examination by a physician.
I f you were a patient in my clinic i would suggest to do the above mentioned exams and see a physician.
Hope the information will be helpful.
Wish you good health.
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
