Your symptoms could be related to anxiety. But, before coming to this conclusion, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a physical exam and some tests: - A brain MRI - Complete blood count for anemia - Thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction - Blood electrolytes for possible imbalance - Vitamin D and vitamin B12 plasma levels for possible deficiency.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
