Hi friend
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The features point to the brain stem.
A normal MRI is against established insult - but it does not rule out TIA (Transient Ischemic Attacks).
A neurologic examination is necessary.
MRA (MRI Angiography) to show the blood vessels may shed light - it is advisable to have it done.. (Some do Doppler study of of neck vessels (Carotid and Vertebral) - but MRA will also show intra cranial vessels.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
