What causes a split second falling sensation? it seems to happen when i am reading on the phone, watching tv, or if my leg or foot shifts position.

See doctor: You're describing a fleeting vertigo or a fainting- like sensation that could have many causes. See your pcp for exam and proper diagnosis. Write down all meds you take, any alcohol/drug/tobacco/caffeine use. If all is normal, consider seeing a mental health professional to look at anxiety as a factor.
