Hi Dear ,
Welcome to HCM,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sudden dizziness and blurry vision . Well there can be many reasons for vertigo like benign paroxysmal positional vertigo , meniere's disease , labyrinthitis ,head injury or stroke . Condition like migraine or sinusitis can also cause such symptoms so consult neurologist for migraine and ENT specialist for sinusitis . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist first for proper diagnosis . Doctor will take history , examine ear with otoscope , order CT scan , posturography and balancing tests to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe sedative , antiemetic drugs and certain device like hearing aid . Doctor may also refer you to cardiologist or neurologist . For now avoid bending forward , do light exercise and drink green tea thrice a day .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
