Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...sudden onset of dizziness in a 12 year old needs attention - it could be -
1. Hypertension due to various causes
2. Neoplasm in the brain
3. Post viral fatigue or chronic fatigue syndrome
4. Rhythm disturbance in the heart
5. Complex partial seizures.
If I were her pediatrician, I would work up in these lines.
