Hi.
The probable reasons for this symptoms are low blood pressure, low supply to the brain at that moment ( the causes have to found out on clinical examination by a Doctor and certain tests like color doppler studies of the neck arteries), Affection of the balance apparatus inside the ear due to some sort of infection or inflammation.
This is just a small list to appraise you, The Doctor will be in a position to suggest what exactly is required to be done.
This is just to tell you the necessity of clinical examination and tests, as many times these trivial symptoms in fact can lead to a more important diagnosis if done in time.
And if all come back negative , you are sure to have less worries.
