Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on Healthcaremagic!

Your symptoms could be related to low blood pressure or orthostatic hypotension. An inner ear disorder can not be excluded too, considering the dizzy spells.
For this reason, I would recommend first consulting with an ENT specialist for a physical check up and labyrinthine tests. Other tests to consider would be a Head Up Tilt test for orthostatic hypotension, especially if your blood pressure values drop during standing up position.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
