Hi,

Dizziness is common and many times, not a serious issue. This may occur with anything even a bad meal. So if your BP is normal, you don't feel faint, and you have no problem with your breathing and no chest pain.

I would suggest you should take more fluids and wait. Hope it goes in some time. If it persists or you have any of the above-mentioned problems then you should see your doctor for proper assessment and management.

But most of the times the problem is not a serious one. Sugar of 115 is fine .270 is bit high. We want to keep it around 2 hundred.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
