I'm having this issue with dizziness, like when I get up from watching TV on the sofa, I feel really light-headed. It's been going on for about six months now. My diet seems fine, and I recently checked my blood pressure, which was 90 over 110, and they said that's normal. But if my blood pressure is okay, then what's causing this dizziness? I really need to figure out what's going on and how to treat it.

It sounds like you may be experiencing orthostatic hypotension, which is a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing up, causing dizziness. Even though your BP is within a normal range, this condition can still occur. Its important to stay hydrated, rise slowly from sittinglying positions, and avoid sudden movements. If the symptoms persist, I recommend consulting with a doctor to rule out other causes, such as inner ear issues or blood sugar imbalances.

I'm really worried because the blood carrying nerve to the brain is blocked. I'm experiencing symptoms like blurred vision, a severe headache, slurred speech, and mild unconsciousness. Do you think surgery is necessary in this situation?

The symptoms described, including blurred vision, severe headache, slurred speech, and mild unconsciousness, indicate a potential medical emergency, such as a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), due to a blockage in the blood vessels supplying the brain; immediate medical attention is crucial, and surgery may be necessary, but a thorough evaluation by a neurologist or neurosurgeon is required to determine the best course of treatment.
