What Causes Dizziness When I Stand Up?
over the last few months i have been feeling dizzy when i stand up . It was ok if not a little annoying but now I have to grab onto anything to stop myself from falling over and I have to say this is getting a little scary now. I do not jump up so it is not a rush to the head any ideas thankyou

Hi and thank you for asking!
You are experiencing dizziness when you stand up, which may be related to:
- Anemia
- Heart failure
- Orthostatic hypotension
This is why i would like to recommend to do the following exams:
- Blood work
- CARDIAC ECHO
- TILT TESTING
Hope this will be of help!
Wish you health!
