Are you still on Dilitizem as this can cause dizziness - not always initially but after you have taken it for a while. There are other anti-anginals you could be prescribed - talk to your GP tomorrow.

If you are worried ring 111 but if it gets really bad 999. Good luck!

Thank you, Laying down last night took me back to partying in our nurses home many years ago - swore I would never drink to that level again! So certainly never expected that awful feeling of the room spinning round again.

Take care.

Hi - thankfully the dizziness is just about ok, but feeling totally crap. One day feel ok, the next ... but improving. Been to the GP who has emailed Cardiologist to request suggestion for alternative medication. Just need a bit of a break in-between first.

Thank you for asking.

Not what you're looking for?
