Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The heart rate variability is not marked.
Dizziness may mean reduced blood flow to the brain because the output is not able to meet the demand / and happening on standing may mean postural hypotension.
You should talk to you doctor – get him updated; yourself too...
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
