Hi,
Headache and dizziness and tendency to fall may suggest syncope / hypotension. I am not able to comment about the jerks without seeing. Or, it is better to have a direct sitting with your doctor as we need a detailed evaluation including BP measurement, ECG and few other tests depending on the situation.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
