Since it has been present now for 2 weeks, would likely be time to see an otolaryngologist, and undergo an evaluation. Central or vestibular issues can be sorted out with a VideoNystagmogram, but other testing such as a full-scale audiological-otological testing profile could be included.

Everytime I stand up too quickly i get dizzy like a head rush. Clear brain ct & mri 1.5 years ago & BP always good. Recently started blood thinners but happened before that even. Should I be concerned or just stop standing up so fast from laying down?

Random flashes of burning and tingling mainly in head but can happen anywhere, chronic dizziness, and flashes of lightning in eyes. Doctors think migraines, and Brain/Orbits MRI/V came back normal. Migraine meds dont help. Could this be FND as well?
