I get a feeling of like a wave in my head and dizziness and feeling like im about to faint, what is this and what causes it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It merits a visit to your doctor for a careful history and physical exam. If it occurred upon standing, it could be due to dehydration, and would respond to drinking more fluids. However, other causes include anemia, fever, infections and some less common causes which include one's neurologic system as well as other illnesses.
