Suggest Treatment For Impaired Vision And Imbalance In Condition Like Cancer

My husband is 44. The other night he had an episode where his balance was off, his vision was impaired, and he was having really bad headaches. His right arm and digits were jerking. I should say that this is his third episode in about a month. He hardly sleeps and has constant headaches. Also he's nauseated a lot and has lost about 20lbs.in the last month. I'm very worried about him especially since cancer diagnosis about four months ago. I've urged him to go to the doctor and get a thorough checkup but he refuses. HELP ME!!!
