Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that her situation could be related to an inner ear disorder or low blood pressure.

What are her blood pressure values?

A stroke can not be excluded either, especially considering her age.

Coming to this point, I recommend first measuring her blood pressure values and heart rate.

If her blood pressure values are low, I would recommend having some rest and giving plenty of water.

If her blood pressure values are high, or if her situation does not improve, I recommend going to the nearest ER service for a physical exam, a resting ECG and a brain CT scan.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
