To the Patient:**
Your symptoms of **giddiness, panic sensations, and postural dizziness** (worsening with bending/eating) suggest possible **vestibular dysfunction, orthostatic hypotension, or metabolic imbalance**. Here’s a structured approach:
Key Recommendations:**
1. Immediate Tests:**
- Check **blood pressure (lying/standing)**, blood
sugar (fasting & post-meal), and ECG to rule out cardiac causes.
- **Hemoglobin,
thyroid (
TSH), and
electrolytes (sodium, potassium)** to identify deficiencies.
2. Symptom Management:**
- Hydration:** Increase water/electrolyte intake (e.g., coconut water, ORS).
- **Diet:** Eat small, frequent meals; avoid sudden position changes.
- *Cinnarizine* (as prescribed) may help if vertigo is confirmed, but avoid self-medication.
3. When to Worry:**
If giddiness is accompanied by **headache, vomiting, slurred speech, or fainting**, seek emergency care to rule out stroke/neurological issues.
Next Steps:
- Consult for a detailed evaluation** of inner ear (vestibular) function, autonomic nervous system, and anxiety triggers.
