Feeling diziness

Hello Doctor, I have been experiencing dizziness on and off for some time. When I stand up or walk, I feel unsteady, as if I might fall. I also experience the same sensation while sitting on a bike or in an e-rickshaw. There is no spinning sensation, but I feel a loss of balance. I recently underwent a full body health check-up. Some of the important findings are: * Vitamin D: 13.7 ng/mL (Deficient) * Vitamin B12: 167 pg/mL (Low) * Platelet Count: 117,000/µL (Low) * HDL Cholesterol: 23.7 mg/dL (Low) * LDL Cholesterol: 131.4 mg/dL (Borderline High) My blood sugar tests (Fasting Glucose and HbA1c), thyroid profile, kidney function, and most other blood tests are within the normal range. Could these abnormal values be related to my dizziness and balance issues? Please let me know what could be the possible cause and what further evaluation or treatment you would recommend. Thank you.
