I've already ruled myself as an individual who suffers from memory loss, other words I suffer from amnesia. I really really forget and can't recall names and recent happenings. This explains why I probably don't do well at school. Here they are:
1. Procrastination
2. (Severe) memory loss
3. Can't keep my balance; when holding a tray, or something along those lines
4. Back of brain/head weird; I get this abnormal feeling at the back of my head, like my head's floating
5. Short-sighted
6. Impaired eye sight; can't concentrate on the television screen, can't even stand the luminosity of PC screen including cellphone, thus lower brightness to near dark
7. Can't concentrate
8. Hardly feel hungry; I eat when I remember I must eat

So what could it be/So what can I be developing? Not Alzheimer's please.
 
I'm no doctor, but have you....oh, hang on...no, I'm not a doctor. Go see one asap. Forum vs scan? I'd pick the scans and a specialist.

The symptoms might not be related...
 
Huh . . . Did you had this symptom for years and years or did they appear gradually over the last 3 to 6 months or so?

That sounds very serious. Get your @ss to a doctor asap - you might need to see a neurosurgeon in which case you will need to be referred by your gp.

All the best.

These days you can make an appointment without referral, but it's nigh-on impossible to get an appointment quickly without one, plus, whether he diagnosis something as neurological or not, you still pay his fees, which tend to be massive.

Again, get your ass to a doctor YESTERDAY, at which point you'll probably be sent for an MRI and such.
 
Dude, unless the symptoms are not that serious and that some of them might be perceived by you because you are starting to get paranoid that something serious is wrong with you, I would suggest that you go see a specialist as soon as possible.

Any headache/balance/memory/vision problem suggests neurological imbalances/injury/disease. Just by googling your whole list of symptoms, you get results from brain tumor, brain injury to even Multiple Sclerosis. Before getting you too worried, like I said, are these symptoms really serious as in impairing your normal living, or did you notice one of the symptoms and began thinking something might be wrong? It is very possible to get paranoid and experience some of the other symptoms when they really are not there. But if any of these symptoms are really there and bothering you - get to the doctor ASAP!! Well, do it anyways....it might just be a inactive thyroid...treatable with some meds that can also cause this. My dad had this and had many of these symptoms, including feeling depresses and tired.
 
Sounds mildly like low blood pressure related issue. But yeah - see doctor!
 
Are you currently on any kind of medication?

Any other physical problems besides your head?

Go see a doc it could be serious or it could just be something as simple as a deficiency or even an allergy.
 
if you haven't been taking any kind of drugs then go see a doctor and don't listen to anyone who says it could be this or that. no one on this forum is a doctor and cannot make a medical diagnosis.

Funny thing is, I have been contemplating about this.
 
Things like epilepsy & MS comes to mind.

Better to go see a doc as it could also be worse than that!

And not of brain tumours? Either you're a huge troll, or just...really really stupid. Yes, give me an infraction, but there's a special kind of dumb, and this is a prime example!

Oh, and it's NEVER Lupus!

Possibly. Have had mild epilepctic feelings. Multiple Sclerosis? Do experience, random numbness and spine problems.
