Vertigo? Please respond

Posted , 5 users are following.

Today (Jan. 30) I got out of bed around 1:00 because my 3yr old son slept in so I did too. When I got out of bed and took my first few steps I felt heart racing and intense spinning / dizzy feelings. I did not feel faint or like I was going to pass out just the feeling I need to sit down. It lasted from 1:00 to 4:30 where it was so intense I could only get up for a few minutes and right back down I had to lay or sit to stop the dizziness , I also had poor balance nothing to me falling over but just very unsteady. I have never felt like that before ... Anyone know anything that could help. ( It did ease up around 7 to where I could get up and do things (bend over, out stuff on my shelves and pick up) with it not being intense but still being a little dizzy spinny feeling. Also when it was intense it was even when I was laying down and I moved my head to the other side to fast I immediately get spinning feeling again . Sorry for it being lengthing just want to add as much detail as possible.

I'm a 22 year old female as well I don't smoke, drink alcohol or do any drugs .

    hey .. do you have any indigestion issues? like gallstones/gastritis  or irritatable bowl syndrome, just make sure to rule out you are not getting dizziness due to digestion issues. If you digestion is good, then physcial therapy excercise is needed to move ear crystal to the right place. You may need to take vng test to check the vestibular.
