What Causes Dizziness, Lightheaded Feeling With Pulsing Sound, Ringing In The Ears And Shortness Of Breath?

Hello, I have had several symptoms for two months and it won t go away. These symptoms are dizziness, lightheaded, pulsing sound, ringing in my ears, shortness of breath, burping often (after my meal) and head spins with black/white spots covers my eyes every time I get up from lying down. Other things you should be aware of is that I have Cochlear Implant and Diabetes Type 1. This has never happened to me before. It just hit me one day and has been like this ever since. I need help. Any suggestions or comments?

Diabetologist,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. You are suffering from postural hypotension. It change between sitting to standing or sleeping to sitting or standing suddenly.
2. Additionally it appears, you have anemia.
3. Postural hypotension is common in the elderly due to reduced adjustment of baroreceptors. Change in posture slowly will reduce most of the symptoms. Take good amount of water and improve your haemoglobin. Avoid sudden change in posture. Risk of fall is present. Venous stockings can be used to reduce pooling of blood in lower limbs.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
