Should I Be Concerned About Weakness And Dizziness In Mornings?
I have been sick for 3 days, seem better this morning. In the mornings and all day Fri. I am very weak, I have to sit after a shower, drying my hair, etc. I was also dizzy in morings and all day Fri. I had stomach problems Thurs, but cleared up with probiotics. I have had flu shot and pneumonia shot, I am 65 and have to work everyday-8 hrs. Should I be seen by Dr, even though I am better this morning but still weak and slightly dizzy at times? I do get better as the day later in afternoon, but feel I must sit most of the day, get winded and weak walking more than 100'.
Do I have a touch of the flu?
I am in good health, 5'5, 140 lbs.

Thank you for the Question.
Brief.. Cause of dizziness can be because of Hypotention(low B.P),or Hypoglycemia(low blood sugar level)
Detail..First of all I would suggest you to get FBS(fasting blood sugar) ,and get checked your Blood pressure to rule out the common causes.You should also get an ECG done once.
Yes you should be concerned as there can be other major problems too ,causing your symptoms e.g..increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure,heart problem etc
Get your above tests done and you can further ask anytime .
Hope my answer will be helpfull for you.
