HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible that you may have a viral infection, this is one of the most common reasons for dizziness and excess sweating (may be related to increased body temperature.)

Increasing your use of fluids may help but if the symptoms continue, you should be seen by your doctor

I hope this helps
