A couple of mornings ago, I woke up. It was like being on an ocean wave instead of a bed/mattress- moving around, pulling me down. Not sure if this is a definition of lightheadedness, but it was extreme enough that I had to crawl to the bathroom. After prepping for the possibility of needing medical care, I sat outside to get fresh air while trying to figure out where to go and how to get there. Within a couple of hours, it subsided.
I had slight dizziness this morning, and a couple of times a few weeks ago, but the episode I described was the worst. Is anyone here familiar with something like that?
Quite a few years ago, I was diagnosed with calcium deposits in inner ear canal. One episode was similar to the one I described, and went to ER. That time, and other times, I was given a prescription similar to Dramamine. In other words, treat the symptom instead of the cause. I learned a relatively minor surgical procedure could cure it permanently, and learned there are exercises to prevent the dizziness.
I have also hypoglycemia, plus am also prone to dehydration.
I'm one of those people who almost never gets sick, and go into panic-mode when anything is abnormal. So I'm wondering if anyone here experiences this symptom, and if the cause was determined.
