Hello and welcome to the HealthcareMagic!
As you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol you are among high risk category of cardiac disease.
Dizziness can be caused by heart problems..
Investigate with EKG.
If slurred speech occurs then CT scan is required.
Ear infections also can lead to such presentation, so rule it out by Otoscopy examination if needed.
Hope this solves your concern.
Take care
