Suggest Treatment For Persistent Dizziness
Question: dizzy when I lay down and when I stand
Brief Answer:
Hello. I understand your concern here
Detailed Answer:
If by dizzy you mean the feeling of spinning around, this may be an attack of benign vertigo, and that is an inner ear problem that usually resolves in a few days.
If this is more of a feeling of lightheadedness it could be from anemia or low blood pressure or dehydration.
You need to see a doctor right away for an exam and blood work to get the appropriate treatment for it
Let me know if you need more information please
