What Causes Intense Dizzy Spells?

I am really worried about my boyfriend. For the past year, he has had these intense dizzy spells out of nowhere. They come quick and he has to hold onto something to make sure he doesn't fall down. He has no health insurance, and we don't know what to do. Please help.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, he must be having hypertension, diabetes,infection of the internal ear, epilepsy or ischemia of the brain.
I advise you to consult a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment .
You may need to have E.E.G, M.R.I, and other tests for diagnosis.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ranitidine, cinnerzine, till the diagnosis is established.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
