This New?: If this is a new thing for you, you need to see a dr. Asap. Might be an impending stroke developing. You will probably need an MRI or ct of the brain at the minimum to rule this out. If this is a chronic problem, it is not nearly as urgent, this is if this have been going on for years. Best to let a dr. Decide.
