Postural hypotension: Dizziness on getting up from lying or sitting position is probably due to drop in blood pressure . Older people are predisposed to get it , sometimes medications can also contribute to dizziness. Winded or getting shortness of breath on climbing steps is commonly related to heart issues and its best to see your doctor immediately .

Dizzy: Postural hypotension or benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Sound like you need to see an internist to check heart and lungs. How many steps before winded, an chest pain? What is daily exercise routine?

Whenever I work out, even if its light intensity, I get really winded, chest pains, wheezing, throat pain and dizzy. It doesnt go away even though I stick with the same routine and intensity for multiple months. is this cause for concern?
