Hello, I am Dr Romain Rajan, General Physician. Your case has been allotted to me.
I understand your concern. Sudden dizziness and a feeling of fainting can happen when blood pressure or
sugar drops. This is common in students who skip meals, study long hours or have irregular sleep.
Advices
1 Take something sweet immediately like glucose powder in water, fruit juice or even a spoon of sugar to bring your sugar level up quickly.
2 Sit or lie down for a few minutes with legs slightly elevated. This helps improve blood flow to the brain.
3 Eat small frequent meals every three to four hours to prevent sudden drops in sugar or blood pressure.
What to Monitor
1 If dizziness increases after standing.
2 Any sweating, shakiness or blurred vision which may indicate low sugar.
3 Persistent weakness even after eating.
Management
You may take oral rehydration solution and a light snack to stabilise energy levels.
If this is happening repeatedly, we need to evaluate your haemoglobin,
thyroid profile and
vitamin levels. After understanding your routine, diet pattern and stress levels, I can guide you with a personalised plan and medicines if needed.
When to Consult a Doctor Immediately
1 If you actually faint.
2 If chest discomfort or palpitations occur.
3 If dizziness continues even after eating and resting.
Every patientâs situation is unique. For accurate diagnosis and lasting relief, it is important to discuss your medical history and symptoms in detail.
You can reach out to me directly for this case and also connect with me in future for any medical consultation. I am available on Practo or on WhatsApp at 85271646 seven seven for a one on one consultation where you will receive
1 A personalised treatment plan
2 Safe medicine adjustments if required
3 Quick follow ups to track your recovery
Take care, wishing you good health.
Dr Romain Rajan
