Brief Answer:
Get investigated as advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern.
The findings described by you are due to aging related vessel blocks, hypertension or diabetes related changes in brain.
You need to get blood pressure and blood sugar measured.
Get other routine investigations like thyroid profile, vitamin B 12, liver and renal function test.
Provide any symptoms if present.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further information.
