I have this when my blood pressure is low. Could you be very dehydrated?

I've been eating and drinking as normal throughout, I've not drank any less than usual so I'm not thinking it is dehydration although it can't hurt to up my fluid intake a little

Inner ear infection?
Blood pressure?

Worth going to Gp.

I think you'll need a gp visit then

My light headedness was caused by the interaction of two medications.

Thankyou for your answers I'm not currently taking any medication so I can count that out of possible causes, hopefully the gp will be able to diagnose or at least give something to help get rid of the feeling. It's my birthday tomorrow and I get to spend it at the doctors

Sounds like labyrinthitis.

Could it be vertigo? Just a thought as your symptoms sound familiar to when my mum had it. She had to have a home visit by the doc as ahe couldn't stand up without being sick. An injection in her behind sorted that right out. Hope you get to enjoy your birthday tomorrow OP. Let us know how you get on.

Sounds like labyrinthitis or vertigo to me.
If it doesn't go, see your GP. Hopefully they'll prescribe buccastem (a tablet you put inside your lip to dissolve) or stemetil if you can keep it down. (Same thing, just in two different forms.)
Sympathies - it's horrible!

Could be a viral thing, too.

Hope you are better soon! See the GP though.

Agree with pp. sounds like labrynthitus. It was easily treated when I had it with a course of meds.

Well, the gp was unable to get a blood pressure reading when I was standing either with her machine or manual pump thing but when sitting it was 126/85

After a few medical questions she concluded that either I was pregnant (I'm not) or she was out of ideas... She gave me prochlorperazine and I've got to go back in for a fasting blood test in the morning. The mess appear to have taken the bite off the feeling so at least I can enjoy my cake

Meds*. Not mess
