An hour waiting to see the Dr, only to be told the medication I was taking was wrong, she has put me on a different one to take 3 times a day, she sent the prescription to my chemist, only to find its shut, as I was late out of my Doctors, she told me if this doesn't work she will send me to ENT, for a check, she said I may have to live with it, she did a quick check on my heart and I mean a quick check, over my clothes, let's see what happens.

I went to the Hospital in Trafford, and was told I have benign paroxysmal positional Vertigo, it only happens when I go to bed, but I found today it happens while I'm walking, the hospital gave me stemitil.

Hi Tina, It could be your heart. What type of heart condition do you have? AFIB can make you pretty dizzy if it is going really fast. Also if your heart rate is too slow that can also make you dizzy and pass out so be really careful. If you can, count your pulse and see how fast or slow your heart is going. Also, DeeDee is correct to check your blood pressure if you can. Call the doctor back and tell them you need to come in as soon as possible and can they squeeze you in today or tomorrow tell them you are so dizzy that you are afraid you will fall. They will get in right away. Keep us posted on how you are doing. Hugs🤗🙏
