What Causes Dizziness In The Morning?

For the last two days I have had bed spins in the morning when I turn my head. When I get up I am fine until i reach down to pick something up. Then I feel like I will fall because the room is spinning. Fine for the rest of the day about 1/2 hour later. I am almost 60. In ok shape. Go to the gym 1-2 times a week. Need to go more. 5 10 197 pounds. Weighed 168 when I was 22. I am taking lisinopril for HBP. Only 10 milligrams a day. Yesterday when this happened I took my bp and it was 149/79. Kind of an unusual reading for me. Usually don t have that high a first number with the second that low.
