Based on your description of symptoms, it could be due to following reasons:
1. Vertigo due to problems in inner ear.
2. Hypertension due to increase in blood pressure.
3. Anaemia due to decreased hemoglobin content in blood.
Kindly consult Physician in this regard and get yourself evaluated for the same. Accordingly, the underlying cause could be treated.
