Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
This just started today. I have been feeling dizzy for about the last 5 hours, sitting and standing. I ve eaten so it s not that I m hungry. I have no other symptoms. Just this horrible dizziness, I feel like the room is spinning and nothing is stopping it.
As per my clinical experience, acute onset dizziness may be indicative of underlying: - Disorder of labyrinth - Cochlear apparatus problem - Auditory nerve conduction disorders - Brain pathologies - Others
Treatment is directed towards the underlying cause, however primary working guidelines would be: - Control of blood pressure - Maintain blood sugar - More liquids at intervals - Tablet betahistidine 16 mg in selected cases - Other supportive care
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
