Dizziness Felt On Standing. Walk 5-6 Miles, Been To Disney World Earlier. Possible Cause?

Dr. I am a 77 yrs old fairly healthy male. I got up this morning and was dizzy upon standing up (a new thing for me). Been dizzy for 4 hours when standing. Sitting is better. Been at Disney World last five days and walking 5/6 miles daily, with bum knee and toe blister(last two). (limping little) Thanks, Russ YYYY@YYYY
