I have had 2 episodes of the following:
off ballance, cannot focus properly, slurred speech, very sharp headache
type pain behind right eye. these last 5 to 10 minutes.
I have hardly never had headaches of any kind , and my blood pressure
during these episodes has been 120/77 and 150/90. I suffered a fall off
a ladder 5 months ago and received a hard blow to the head (untreated) the fall did
not render me unconsious. I am 58 years old and i do not drink or smoke
and I work out daily.
Thank you
