Strange, because I usually don't feel dizzy when I get up out of bed, and I get up slowly.
Hasn't happened before in the past 16 months. I swung my left foot back & didn't fall. The foot, ankle, knee & hip are all feeling it, though. Hoping the foot especially will get better soon. Thanks for reading- |

Any med changes? I got very dizzy and fell after my dose of amitriptyline was increased.

I get dizzy from time to time. It doesn't happen as often as it used to, but it still happens.

I get dizzy/unbalanced if I'm really tired or if I push myself too far. My head whooshes and I get unsteady. I take it as a sign to chill...

I am going to hope you can get the money or insurance. To get to a doctor
if it continues. It sounds more like it could have been a isolated situation with getting dizzy. Now about the foot. Do you have a ice pack that turns both hot/cold. Or can you or someone go get you one. This and tylenol or ibprofen will help the pain. I personally would alternate, with the ice/hot. Or use just which ever works best. For me its usually the hot.
