Hi, I have been getting a type of dizziness -at least I think that's what to call it -feeling like things are kind of unsteady for a few months. It seemed to improve or else I got used to it, and just put it down to anxiety. I have had blood test for iron, BP taken by Dr and 24 hr ECG since this all began and they all came back ok.
However this last month I went through a real stress with a totally unrelated health issue (my finger/hand swelling -even posted about it on here!) The Drs are onto that, but the dizziness thing has become worse. I was guessing it was a result of the extra stress but you know how it is when it *keeps* grabbing your attention!
I'm not even sure if this is what you call dizziness but it's a sensation of feeling wobbly/off balance, I often find my feet are like trying to keep balance and I sometimes notice my legs feel somewhat shaky/weak. Otherwise it's like my perception of where the floor is is off - like that feeling when you think there's an extra step but there isn't? It can feel like I'm trying to walk around a moving boat or something.
It isn't happening all the time and is mostly fine when I'm sitting, but if I'm wandering around the flat or getting up from a chair or just standing it can happen. I weirdly haven't noticed it when walking or cycling outside. It is happening a lot though inside. Does anyone have any experience of this?
