Any Suggestions For Occasional Few Seconds Of Dizziness, Tinnitus In A Healthy 74 Yr Old Female Who Is On Calcium & Vitamin Supplements?

Sometimes a feeling comes into my head like dizziness but things are not spinning. It only lasts for a very few seconds. It does not happen often. I am not on any medications except for Viactive (calcium) Sentrum Silver vitamins, and Alavert (allergy medicine). I am almost 74 years old. Female. Not overweight. I walk and lift weights several times a week. I am physically fit for my age. Recently I had routine checkup. My tests came back like a 40 year old. I do have a ringing in my ears or hissing but I understand that there is nothing that came be done for that. What do you suggest?

Hi and welcome to HCM,

This may be due to vestibular disturbances or affected seventh nerve which will cause imbalance. Consult your ENT surgeon.

Wish you speedy recovery

Thanks
