History: The first requirement is for a physician to take a thorough past and present history and system review and then perform a physical and neurological examination. Mental status evaluation would also be performed. Depending upon these assessments any appropriate tests will be ordered and could include brain imaging or EEG(brain wave). If no history of head injury or neurological symptoms,I doubt any
