Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, Welcome. Dizziness & fall can be because of lot of causes. Your bp is in normal range & has not dropped significantly to cause dizziness. But still you need to monitor it as one of causes of dizziness is Orthostatic hypotension i.e. fall in bp with change in position (this fall should be >30mm Hg systolic & >15mm Hg diastolic). So you should check your bp lying down & standing. Other causes include neurological causes for which you need to do a CT scan. Keep yourself well hydrated & see a doctor after these investigation. Thanks
