Hot flush and dizziness

[AhBiscuits]

Since August I've been having these weird episodes where I suddenly get incredibly hot and the world starts spinning. All I can do is lie down until it passes, which it does after a few minutes. It can strike at any time. Today I was cleaning a fish tank and suddenly had to lie on the floor. Another time I was just in bed. It happens maybe twice a month. Any ideas? I'm 43, menopause?

Could be peri, but you should see your GP, as it could be other things.

Could it be a balance issue? Inner ear disorder?

It could be meno related but it sounds more like vertigo. I would see your GP as if its vertigo then prochlorperazine tablets can really help with the dizziness.
