What Causes Persistent Dizziness, Confusion And Lightheadedness?
Question: Hi,
From the past 10 days, I have dizziness, confusion and light headedness. I was earlier prescribed with Hicet DC ..which caused this when my left ear appeared full. When I told the doctor of the symptom she gave me EBAST DC ..which I discontinued after 5 days as I was constantly dizzy. I took the blood tests now and reports are attached.
1. Why am I experiencing dizziness ..specially when I seem to look up after saying washing the dishes or getting up from a sitting position
2. Why is my ALP and bilirubin elevated
