Severe brain fog, weakness, unbalance
I am an 18-year-old male experiencing severe brain fog, extreme physical and mental exhaustion, difficulty with memory recall and simple calculations, and a feeling of unbalance/dizziness while walking. I am also feeling high anxiety due to these symptoms. Please guide me on what could be causing this and which basic blood tests (like Vitamin B12, D3, CBC, Thyroid, Electrolytes) or physical check-ups I should get done immediately.

Brain fog, exhaustion and trouble with memory and calculations together usually point to a correctable cause rather than anything serious at your age, most often a vitamin deficiency, anaemia, thyroid imbalance, poor sleep, or anxiety itself feeding the symptoms. The unsteadiness while walking is worth checking properly rather than assuming it shares the same cause.
Next Steps
Get the tests you listed done, vitamin B12, D3, CBC, thyroid profile and electrolytes, plus a basic blood sugar check. See a general physician with the results and mention the anxiety and balance issue specifically so they can examine you properly.
Health Tips
If the unsteadiness is getting worse, or you have slurred speech, blurred vision or weakness on one side, get seen urgently.
