Dizziness from the neck?

Some of you (or many!) know that I suffer from constant dizziness. Not when sitting down but when walking. This has been going on since February any any medical reasons have pretty much been ruled out. I was told it's most likely anxiety-related. I also think that is possible. But yesterday I noticed that if I lift my chin up a bit when walking I don't get as dizzy. Still dizzy just not at all that funny feeling in my head. Could my dizziness come from the neck as well? It just feel weird to walk with my chin that much higher, but hey, what do you do smile Well, my question is if it's common with neckrelated dizziness?

    Hi Stinaliza, i experience the same type of dizziness as you mentioned. It does felt better when sitting down and doing work or computer near work. I also feel better (usually) when taking public transport such as the train and bus. (I live in Singapore and we travel a lot via public transport). When i play sports i dont feel as dizzy also. Even though the sports involve running around and turning and moving a lot. Not sure if you have similar symptoms. I do have neck stiffness ocasionally. Have yet to get it checked out. All the best to you!
