What Causes Sudden Dizziness?

I have a sudden feeling of having the wind knocked out "not painful and not from any specific activity" that accompanys a feeling of head rush or near fainting. Happens on a random time line may not have one for a 6mo to 1year then have 2 or 3 in one day?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Your symtoms may be caused by an inner ear problem.
Some advcies that I can give to you are:
-Do not use substances that can affect your circulation, including caffeine, tobacco, alcohol, and illegal drugs.
-Do not get dehydrated
-Rest. It is not unusual to develop lightheadedness during some viral illnesses
-Lie down for a minute or two. This will allow more blood to flow to your brain.
Hope my answer was helpful.If you have any other question Ill be glad to help.
Regards,
dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
