Brief Answer:
Anemia/ENT/Neurological issues to rule out

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.

Feeling dizziness when standing up might be related to :
- anemia (complete blood count is advised to rule it out )
- oscillations in blood pressure (get your blood pressure checked, and record the results for further evaluation )
- inner ear problems (further consultation with ENT specialist advised )
- neurological problems to be ruled out by neurologist )

Hope it was of help!
