<bot>: Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I carefully passed through your question and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to different causes: - transient ischemic attacks-partial sensory epilepsy seizures- a backbone disorder causing compression of the cervical spine-anxiety. Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician and performing a physical exam and some tests: - a resting ECG- a chest X-ray study- an EEG - some blood lab tests (complete blood count, blood electrolytes, thyroid hormone levels, kidney and liver function tests, fasting glucose)- a cervical spine X-ray study brain MRI may be needed is suspicions of Transient ischemic attacks are raised. If all the above tests result normal, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of this symptomatology. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes,
