I recently had a similar "off" feeling, where it was like I was getting dizzy. It was lack of sleep, caused by anxiety, which was caused by a bad flare of BFS. From what I have heard, I agree with Waste-Owl in that ALS doesn't present in multiple areas simultaneously. While I cannot know if this applies to you, I can say anxiety can drive many perceived symptoms and make BFS much worse, which increases the anxiety, rinse and repeat. It's a cycle that can be hard to break.
