Well, I just tried to ride and do not have any directional stability. I have3 an appointment with my Neurologist on the 26th. I really don't know what I am going to do if I cannot ride my bike. That really is the only thing other than my wife that makes life worth living. According to the ER last week, the magic bullet is an MRI. They see from the CT scan that I have at least a partial blockage of an artery in my neck that has to do with the part of my brain that controls balance. But without the MRI they would do nothing to treat that.

 
 
I did advise you to go to an ER. They do still exist in the US,
despite Trump? Must be free, since they are for American citizens with
medical emergencies ....
 
What you described can progress very rapidly so an ER is safer than
waiting for an out-patient with a neurologist. And you definitely
should not be driving, you are a risk to others.
 
 

I wonder what they did before I desined and programmed the first MRI?

 
Probably just ordered a regular MRI, not the "special" TK MRI.

What is a "TK MRI" ?  Web search was unhelpful.

An MRI desined(sic) and programmed by a "Tom Kunich".
I also had trouble finding any references. Why I recommended the
regular one. Or rather, recommended an ER. Let them decide what is
best, an MRI or a CT scan.
Could be something as benign as side effects of
medication(self or prescribed) or as bad as a mobile blood clot. That
could progress very quickly.
And I'm off. Bad no-break. Overheating and cuts off. Probably
just needs a new battery.
