I see you are spelling out the nuerological tests — I was doing all of them and some more today. My daughter noticed yesterday when she arrived and we were eating that one of my pupils was smaller than the other. Which is definitely a nuerolgical signal - but as I do not have any of the other symptoms it is possibly a micro clot or some small internal bleeding. This morning it was not really noticable but she gave me all the nuerolical tests.

The tongue the finger gripping raising the arms following her finger with one eye covered closing the eyes and standing feet together and observing how I swayed. This morning slightly to the right but just now no sway at all. She said my right and left grip were about equal with slightly stronger on the right which is normal.

I suppose I will have to go to the doc and have a few tests. I just don´t like going to the docs with no apparent problem.

No apparent problem? It doesn't sound like that to me. Yes, you need to go! Seeing a doctor requires only a couple of hours... Be safe, give up a few hours to avoid being sorry for months or even years of speech and physical rehab.
