    Lightheadness

    by James V. Crawford, MD, MAJ, MC

    Patients who suffer from lightheadedness need to be evaluated by their primary care provider. Irregular heart rhythm, blood pressure problems, blood sugar problems (diabetes), heart disease, atherosclerosis, visual problems, and even anxiety may cause lightheadedness. It is important to be evaluated to make sure that none of those problems exist.
