On top of that, I've been having some muscle twitching, and I can't help but worry if it's something serious. Should I be concerned about these symptoms?

Ive been experiencing this weird sensation where it feels like my head and body are moving even when Im lying down. Sometimes I feel out of balance when Im walking, too. What could be causing this? It's starting to worry me a bit.
