Brief Answer:
It can be due to high blood pressure.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

A detailed medical history of your medical status along with your medications, if any, is needed to answer your query.
After reading your post it seems that your symptoms might be due to increase in your systolic blood pressure. (178 is a high systolic reading).
I would suggest that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated by your doctor. You need an antihypertensive for control of blood pressure and your symptoms. You can take cinnarizine 25 mg for control of giddiness to some extent. Further medical management can be planned according to the clinical evaluation by your doctor.

I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
