Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!

I understand your concern and would explain that taking daily baby aspirin and a lot of fluids can help improve the blood circulation in the brain.

GinkGo supplements can help improve the blood mircrocirculation to the brain too.

During dizziness episodes, I would recommend adding dimenhydrinate or meclizine to her therapy for short periods of time!

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Wishing all the best,
