I'm really worried because the blood carrying nerve to the brain is blocked. I'm experiencing symptoms like blurred vision, a severe headache, slurred speech, and mild unconsciousness. Do you think surgery is necessary in this situation?

The symptoms described, including blurred vision, severe headache, slurred speech, and mild unconsciousness, indicate a potential medical emergency, such as a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), due to a blockage in the blood vessels supplying the brain; immediate medical attention is crucial, and surgery may be necessary, but a thorough evaluation by a neurologist or neurosurgeon is required to determine the best course of treatment.

View allI'm feeling these hard pulses all over my body, like in my head, hands, and legs, and I'm also dealing with constant shaking and body vibrations. My vitamin B12 is low at 150, but my ECG came back normal. This has been going on for years. My blood pressure is normal, and my pulse rate is about 80, though it goes up with exercise or activity. I know I'm overweight and have a lot of anxiety. Should I be worried about these hard pulses? I tend to overthink and often find myself spiraling after looking things up on the internet. What do you think could be causing this?
