Hey,
I noticed last week I started feeling dizzy for a few days on and off. I am always anxious. I felt off balance and one night I didn't even want to drive. I wasn't physically anxious , but I have alot on my mind. And, even when I don't, I'm usually anxious about something. Ofcourse, I started panicking and it felt worse, but then it passed. I wasn't sure what it was. I thought it might have been a mixture of the heat (it has been really humid here) and anxiety.
Just try to sit down and stay cool, I know that helps me. I don't think it's anything serious.You can give it some more time, but if it becomes really troublesome, make an appt. with your D.R.
