Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have not been feeling particularly well for the last three days and thought I probably had flu symptoms, but now I feel rather light-headed when standing up and walking around. Sitting I am OK but standing and walking --- I almost feel drunk. Any ideas
