HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such symptoms of vertigo could be due to hypoglycemia and this need to be ruled out first, try to have Doxycycline with empty stomach although symptom of vertigo is not related with this, some time it could be due to vestibular dysfunction which may be geriatric problem, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
