Why do I feel dizzy every so often?
479242
Can I ask? Do you find that this feeling happens during warmer days? The heat could be a key. If so, it might be the caffiene. As a fellow Mountain Dew lover, I find that after coffe, tea and dew all the caffiene totally messes with my system and dizziness and almost a "numbing" effect in my stomach and body seems to take over. My doctor told me to limit my caffiene intake to one cup. I now drink decaffinated tea in the summer and much more water. I cut the dew in the spring and summer too and switch to gatorade or something. *shrugs* Just a thought. Good luck.....hope you get better!

You need to see an ENT. I have Meneivere's Disease and it makes me feel that way. But its more than likely an inner ear infection or disorder. Beleive me I know what it feels like. Its horrible. I have had my disease since 88 but it has tapered off. The Dr can perscribe antivert, which works well for the dizziness and nausea, but valium works better for severe vertigo. Go to the DR.

Most of the time, when people recieve additional fluid (such as glucose or shots) people get a little vertigo.  This usually happens because lack of fluid intake proir to recieving medication.  A rush of medication has been entered into your system without enough water to keep you "level".  It enters the body and take effect faster than a pill.  At this point vertigo begins to take effect.  Making you dizzy, light-headed and have some shortness of breathing.  The best way to avoid this in the future would be to hydrate before recieving fluid medication.

Two main things control your body's balance.  Your inner ear or your equilibrium, and a part of your brain in the back of your head called the cerebellum.  These centers tell your brain what position your head and body is in.  When the fluid of your equilibrum gets disturbed, your brain gets the message that your heads in one position, when it's in another. This is what causes visual dizziness (room spinning).  Your body doesn't know how you are positioned and your visual senses  are effected because you brain's getting different messages.  Things don't add up when you're dizzy and your body's position control centers are no longer working on the same page.  A lot of this dizziness is a good sign of an inner ear problem, as well as many other conditions.

It is likely from the Effexor. This is a very common side effect. Sounds like you need to talk to your doctor about a medication change. It is not a good idea for you to stop the medication abruptly, though, as there is a risk of serotonin withdrawal syndrome. This may be a contributor to your dizziness.

There could be several reasons that you are having dizzy spells.\nThe biggest one is probably not enough calories, and not eating before exercising.  Have an apple with a bit of peanut butter, or low-carb granola bar 30min-1 hr before exercising.  The bare minimum for a woman for calories is 1200, and if you are exercising regularly that probably isn't sufficient.\nYou also need to be sure that you are getting plenty of fluids.  Dizziness could be due to a drop in blood pressure due to dehydration.  Your best bet would be to consult your physician before starting a new diet/exercise plan, especially if you are severely overweight, live a sedentary lifestyle, and/or have pre-existing health problems.

It could be the beginning of a panic attack.  Is this followed by unhappy thoughts and then general shakiness?  If not, this could be a number of things besides a panic attack.  Analyze the food you just ate before the dizziness started.  I get these symptoms from caffeine in any form...coffee, pop, even tea.  My body just will not tolerate caffeine in any form and when I ingest caffeine I get the same symptoms.  Also, heavy sugar on an empty stomach can do the same thing.  You could also have an inner ear infection.  Your ear won't hurt but your equilibrium will be shot.  I also have had panic attacks and they began this very same way.  However, panic attacks usually begin this way but get a lot worse.  The classic panic attack does not stop will just getting dizzy and tired.  You need to describe these symptoms to a doctor.  There are too many things that could be happening here medically.

hormone isn't secreted when you shake your head. hormones are a chemically controlled substance that don't come out on a whim. \n\ni have a feeling that neurotransmitters are the culprits. neurotransmitters are sent throughout the body, Endorphins, which make you happy, might be the cause of this. \n\nheightened blood pressure, and lack of oxygen might increase the intensity of the neuotransmitter, which would lead to intense pleasure! the rapid movements of the nerve impulse to the synpases of the nervous system are the real technical cause..\n\nmaybe you're just shaking your head too hard.. and you're feeling light-headed. with all of the blood down there, i wouldn't be surprised that the dizzy feeling is from lack of blood! \n\nenjoy!

could be signs of dehydration, especially if the dizziness occurs when you stand up rapidly or stand up after being in a crouching position. do an experiment where you make a conscious effort to drink more water (pee nearly clear by noon and stay that way until bedtime) and see if it helps!

are you doing anything just before or during that makes them come on?  like standing up?  a lot of dizzy spells are from low blood preasure, especially when standing up (it's called orthostatic hypotension).  also it can come from low blood sugar.   so make sure you're not getting too hungry by snacking on fruits during the day and drink plenty of water.

Dizzyness can be caused be many things.  One of the most common is low blood surgar, the other is being anemic.  If you are passing out completely is could be a seizure.  It sounds like you might just have low blood sugar or could be anemic you should ask your doctor about the symptoms and they can give you a better answer.

Generally common in young people , but low blood pressure is vague term, importantly if your blood pressure is generally low and you are asymptomatic, that means its not causing you any problems, only thing your doctor can advise is to increase caffeine/salt intake, But low blood pressure which has come on suddenly and causing you dizziness and fainting needs to be investigated by your doctor. In nutshell, if you have low blood pressure and no symptoms, consider yourself lucky and maintain healthy lifestyle, if on other hand, its come on recently and its giving you problems, you need to see doctor

are you eating properly.  Honestly when your hungry you get dizzy, and headaches.  Then when you eat after fasting for a while it really will "run" right through you.  It could be hundred of diffent things, even stress, so only you know how bad it is go to your doctor if it alarms you further. good luck
