Hi welcome to health care magic forum.
Cirrhosis can be cause of dizzines in termial stages but you should also check your heart and neural function which is common cauise of dizziness too. You need to regulate your diet, reduce salt intake and avoid hepatotoxic products. also,control diuresis by diuretics to reduce swelling and ascites. diarrhea can be sign of cirrhosis too but if assocauated with fever then it indicates enterocolitis which should be treated by antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query.Regards
