Hi,
The neurological symptoms you mention need a good evaluation by a doctor. A good physical examination and maybe an MRI or CT scan will be needed to rule out brain lesions or hemorrhage or other problems as the cause of the weakness, vision changes and unsteadiness.
As for mirtazapine, you will need to discuss with your doctor if you should cut off it, generally, it is best to do small dose changes every 3-4 weeks till you are completely off it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
