Hi,
I hope you're doing well.
You have asked about sudden giddiness. Giddiness is a vague symptom, can be related to not so harmful to worrisome conditions.
As you are having postural giddiness for some duration which is mostly related to benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. As the name suggests it is mostly related to change in position.
for vertigo, you can do eye movement and neck movements exercise to strengthen your vestibular apparatus in-ear.
another benign condition that results in dizziness lightheadedness is the postural drop in blood pressure, dehydration. for that, you need to keep yourself hydrated by drinking adequate water. You can wear stockings in the leg.
if symptoms are associated with blurring of vision or imbalance you should consult your physician for further evaluation.
hope this will help you.
regards
