HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, but this could be nonspecific one because if this is not associated with any other clinical symptoms or predisposing factor, like, diabetes, hypertension, or any neurological disease, just keep this condition under observation, if this does not comes around on its own, then this need to be clinically examine then CT brain, routine blood test would be needed, take care, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
