On Google you can find a list of neurological diseases. Go thru the
list, one by one. Find what matches your symptoms.

Having done that, then do a search on whatever self-diagnosis you have
come up with. Look for causes.

If you come up with causes, then maybe tell us so that we all can
benefit from this knowledge. Maybe it has to do with aspartame or MSG
or some kind of insecticide or somesuch damn thing.
