Dizziness on Waking Up
After completing my covid treatment Azithromycin 500mg OD 3 days followed by Doxycycline 100 mg BD for 7 days (along with Vitamin C and Zinc) as prescribed by doctor, I developed gastritis. For this, doctor asked me to take Pantocid. After my medication was over, I experience heavy dizziness after waking up from both short naps and deep sleep. I have numbness on back of my head and lasts for few minutes. There is no pain, though. No matter which posture I sleep in, this numbness doesn't stop. I have never experienced such a high intensity numbness ever, and haven't changed my posture or mattress recently. My sleep quantity and quality remains the same. I am afraid that this could be a complication of Covid? Please help

This seems like a post-covid complication. Recovery from it might be slow. Don't take extra medications for this.

It could be because of weakness which is common after effect of covid. Eat healthy food with plenty of fluids, reduce the intake of oily food and spices, add few nuts to your diet such as walnuts and pistachios. If the situation doesn't improve even marginally in a week's time consult a doctor.
Health Tips
Eat healthy food, less spices, drink warm water, take plenty of fluids and take rest
