I've been feeling some weird things lately, and I'm a bit worried. Last night, my sister said I was experiencing jerks in my sleep. Today, I'm noticing that parts of my body seem to move involuntarily when I'm trying to fall asleep. Plus, I've barely slept more than 5 hours a night this past week. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be serious?

My vision has been blurry and I've had this terrible headache that won't go away. Sometimes my speech slurs and I feel a bit out of it like I might pass out. Could this be because blood flow to the nerves in my brain is blocked? Would I need surgery for this?

Common causes of blurry vision and headaches are migraines, eyestrain, and other correctable vision issues. Examples of emergency causes include a stroke, dangerously low blood sugar, traumatic brain injury, and carbon monoxide poisoning
