What could be the reason for dizziness after running short distances?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I would like to know some details about your symptoms of dizziness:

1. What exactly do you feel in dizziness?

a) Feeling of rotation of surroundings.

b) Feeling of rotation inside the head.

c) Feeling of imbalance while walking or in a standing position.

d) Feeling of blackening or blurring in front of the eye while getting up from a sitting position.

e) If there is something else. Please describe.

2. As it is happening intermittently, how long does one episode lasts?

3. Do you feel any palpitations, breathing difficulty, or impending doom at that time?

4. How is your sleep these days. How long does it take to get sleepy after lying in bed, and once sleepy, do you get sound sleep or have frequent awakenings?

5. How is your common mood these days? Toward the sad side, worried, happy, irritable, or something else?

6. Any history of impaired hearing, ear discharge, and tinnitus?

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

You are describing your dizziness mix of three types

1) Feeling of rotation inside the head.

2) Feeling of imbalance while walking.

3) Feeling of blackening and blurring.

All three features point toward different possibilities.

By this description, I cannot pinpoint if your dizziness is vertigo, presyncope or postural hypotension, or imbalance in walking.

Such a mixture of symptoms can also happen in an acute anxiety spell.

You should consult physically with a neurologist, ENT (ear, nose, and throat) specialist, and cardiologist. Better will be to consult physically so that the examination can be feasible.

The investigative part may also be important. But I suggest getting it done after physical consultation.

Thank you.
