What Causes Dizziness, Chills And Fatigue?
My mother (age 88) gets spells of dizziness, chills, weakness about once a month. She has had lab tests and everything checks out okay. We are wondering if it could be a dip in blood pressure or blood sugar. She usually feels okay within the next 24 hours.
