I've been feeling dizzychakkar when I wake up these past couple of days. It happened to me a few years ago too, but it eventually went away on its own without any medication. I'm a bit worried now because I felt okay waking up yesterday, but the dizziness has lingered all day. Im curious to know what type of doctor I should see for this. Any ideas?
