View allI'm feeling really dizzy in the mornings, and it's been happening again. After waking up today, the dizziness just hit me out of nowhere and lasted all day. I actually experienced the same thing about four weeks ago, and that time it went on for three days straight. I just thought it was normal back then, but now it's back and kind of freaking me out. Could this be due to dehydration or maybe something with my blood pressure? I checked my BP and it was 120. What should I do about this?
That could be postural hypotension,visit your doctor for evaluation and management,try not to run are wakeup swift from your bed,take adequate rest and consume healthy diet.
