Thanks for contacting with your health concern.

1. As there is a positive family history of hypertension thus it is a risk factor in you, so regular checkup with a Cardiologist is mandatory.

PS. for this reason you have been prescribed arbloc [losartan pottasium] which reduces the excess workload of the heart & arteries and check regularly with serum potassium and creatinine.

2. Although check-up is normal, but since I'm unable to examine you directly, thus my approach in your case would be:

i. As the age advances Cervical spondylitis is the commonest cause, even then:

ii. If symptoms are severe or associated with any neurological sign, consult a Neurologist.

iii. Check with your blood pressure, neck movements and look for pallor & murmur [Cardiologist opinion], and ask for cochlear symptoms [deafness & tinnitus] & vestibular symptoms [vertigo & nystagmus]

iv. If the symptoms are not promptly controlled, ask for Hb%, X-ray cervical spine [AP & Lateral], ENT & Ophthalmic checkup, till then:

- bed rest, avoid movements if symptoms are severe.
- tablet cinnarzine 25 mg [thrice daily] till symptoms are controlled.
- capsules B complex: twice daily.

PS. check baseline investigations like serum electrolytes, thyroid, and cholesterol profile and blood sugar level.
