What Could Cause On And Off Dizzy Spells After Taking MDMA In The Drink?

Do you know any reason why I may feel dizzy after taking MDMA on Saturday night, it was my 1st time and I wasn't told it was put in my drink, I felt amazing while I was on it but since yesterday I have been getting dizzy spells. I am very bunged up and have a cold but I don't know if the dizzy spells are the reason? I do feel more better than yesterday but I'm still very scared?
