Hi, i just got up from a seated position and as i stood, i got dizzy and my vision went. this happens occasionally. but this time i leant on the wall for support and my body (legs especially) were shaking and i struggled to stay up on my feet . this went on for what felt like around 30 seconds. Im since left feeling alittle nausious.

DEAR SIR/MADAM
THERE ARE LOT OF REASONS. AGE OF THE PATIENT PLAYS A VITAL ROLE WHILE DIAGNOSING THESE PATIENTS.
CHECK FOR
1. BLOOD PRESSURE
2. BLOOD SUGARS
3. 2D ECHO SCAN FOR CARDIAC OUTPUT
4. EVEN CONSIDERING GETTING A CT SCAN HEAD AND NECK
AFTER CHECKING ALL THESE PARAMETERS PLEASE CORRELATE, ONE WILL DEFINATELY ADDRESS YOUR PROBLEM
THANK YOU
