Dizziness

Tom said:

Hi, I've been experiencing periods of dizziness and
lightheadedness for a couple of years now and recently it
has flared up again. For instance, when I stand up and
start walking across the room, I get this sudden
lightheaded feeling and then my vision goes away for a few
seconds (I see stars). I bend over and it seems to take
care of it. Then I get a pulse that pounds really hard for
about a minute following the episode. The other time I
experience these symptoms is when I'm exercising on the
treadmill, when a little waise through the workout I start
getting lightheaded and have to stop for about a minute so
it goes away. My blood pressure is quite good, around
124/72. Are there any heart conditions that can cause the
problems that I just mentioned?

Yes. And, for this reason, you should seek an evaluation by
a cardiologist.
