I've been dealing with dizziness for a while now, like it started some years ago and it's happening again. I'm really worried about why this dizziness keeps coming back. Do you think it could be something serious? What should I do to figure out what's going on?

Recurring dizziness may indicate an underlying condition, such as inner ear problems (e.g., benign paroxysmal positional vertigo), migraines, or vestibular issues; consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a neurologist to rule out any underlying conditions and develop a treatment plan to manage your symptoms.

Question

I'm experiencing this strange sensation whenever I go to bed and move around, it feels like there's movement, and then when I stand up, my feet feel like they're moving too. I've been taking Neurocetam Plus as advised by my ENT doctor for the last 17 days, but this keeps happening every 8 to 10 days. The good news is that the sensation seems to become less intense each time it occurs, but it's still really concerning me. Any thoughts on what might be going on or what I should do next?

Question

I'm wondering if vertigo could be making me feel so sleepy and drowsy. I've been experiencing this light-headed dizziness, and it makes my eyes feel like they just want to close. Could this be connected to vertigo, or should I be looking at other causes?
