Hi Anonymous,
Thanks for your question, and for finding EmpowHER. We all have those days when we just don't feel right, and consistently knock things over, etc. When is the last time you met with your General Practitioner? Have you ever mentioned these things to them?

How long have you been experiencing symptoms? How often do you get these symptoms? What you are describing could be any number of things. Causes for your symptoms could be anything from a vitamin deficiency, to a serious condition such as stroke or something else. You may want to contact your doctor as soon as possible or dial 911 if you find your speech slurred combined with dizziness and intense headache--these signal a possible stroke:

Good luck and let us know what your doctor says. Your experience may help someone else.
