Hi, Dizziness has many possible causes, including inner ear disturbance, motion sickness and medication effects. Sometimes it's caused by an underlying health condition, such as poor circulation, infection or injury. Dizziness usually goes away on its own. If you tend to experience repeated episodes of dizziness, consider these tips: Be aware of the possibility of losing your balance, which can lead to falling and serious injury.Avoid moving suddenly and walk with a cane for stability, if needed.Fall-proof your home by removing tripping hazards such as area rugs and exposed electrical cords. Use nonslip mats on your bath and shower floors. Use good lighting.Sit or lie down immediately when you feel dizzy. Lie still with your eyes closed in a darkened room if you're experiencing a severe episode of vertigo.Avoid driving a car or operating heavy machinery if you experience frequent dizziness without warning.Avoid using caffeine, alcohol, salt and tobacco. Excessive use of these substances can worsen your signs and symptoms.Drink enough fluids, eat a healthy diet, get enough sleep and avoid stress.If your dizziness is caused by a medication, talk with your doctor about discontinuing it or lowering the dose. Everyone forgets things at some time.  Some degree of memory problems, as well as a modest decline in other thinking skills, is a fairly common part of aging. There's a difference, however, between normal changes in memory and the type of memory loss associated with Alzheimer's disease and related disorders. And some memory problems are the result of treatable conditions. If you're experiencing memory problems, talk to Neurologist to get a timely diagnosis and appropriate care...
