Monitor BP, sugar and HB.Exercise,plenty of water

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I went through the query and understood your concern.

Dizziness and spinning feeling may be due to hypotension, hypoglycemia, anemia or due to inner ear problem as common causes. You need to check for your blood sugar level, hemoglobin (Hb%) and blood pressure(BP) at different positions. If there are any variations then we can treat the cause based on findings. If all are normal then needs ENT examination once from your doctor. For now drink plenty of water, have nutritious food and daily 30 minutes exercise is required to keep the tone of your muscles.

I hope this information helps you and answered your concern. Feel free to ask for any further queries. I will be glad to answer them.

Wish you faster recovery and good health.
Regards
