Question: after working on something I hadnt't done i many years, which was a very hard manual labor type job, I had a dizzy spell . and since then I have not been feeling up to par.I am 82 years old, and lost my husband 2 and a half years ago
Brief Answer:
It was due to exhaustion...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I am sorry for the situation you are in.
I am sorry for the loss of your husband too.
The dizzy spell you experienced was due to exhaustion. That is a normal reaction to work overload.
I advise to :
- get more rest
- drink more water and other fluids ( keep well hydrated)
- take OTC pain killers
If dizziness will persist, consult with neurologist.
