What Could Cause Dizziness While Going To Bed?

I get dizzy when I go to bed and when I move from vertical to horizontal position i.e when I go to bed I also have a join on my right shoulder or maybe a moscule that also gives me pain when I move it and I feel that this may cause the problem. I use my right arm a lot as I am a woodturner and I get a lot of shattering when I work which is transfer to my shoulder. the dizziness started about two weeks ago and the sholder pain about 2 m0nths ago. sorry about the spelling

Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

I read carefully your question and understand your concern.
Your symptoms could be related to chronic degeneration in the cervical vertebral column. These changes, could lead also to irradiating nerve pain in the arm and shoulder.
An inner ear disorder can not be excluded either, although your symptoms are not typical of this disorders.
Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your doctor and performing a cervical spine X ray study and a shoulder X ray study. A cervical spine MRI study may be necessary.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
