I feel dizzy when I wake up in the morning

Some diseases come very suddenly. Sometimes after a night's sleep, you will have uncomfortable symptoms early the next morning. For example, you may feel dizzy, have neck pain, nausea and vomiting, have a fever and a cold in the morning. These are all very sudden diseases. Many people feel dizzy when they wake up in the morning, but after a long time they don’t feel anything, but this may be a signal from the body. Let’s find out what’s going on~

1. Why do I feel dizzy after getting up in the morning?

If the quality of sleep at night is not high, or you go to bed too late, eat too much before going to bed, are in a bad mood before going to bed, etc., this may cause dizziness when you wake up in the morning. However, if you often feel dizzy when you wake up early, then it may be a sign of some disease and you need to pay special attention.

1. Unstable blood pressure

There are many reasons why you may feel dizzy after getting up in the morning, the most common of which may be increased blood pressure. Due to high blood viscosity and slow blood flow, the brain is not supplied with enough blood, and symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and weakness are likely to occur in the morning.

In addition, low blood pressure may also cause dizziness when waking up early. In mild cases, there may be no symptoms, while in severe cases, there may be mental fatigue, dizziness, headache, and even fainting. The symptoms will be more obvious, especially in the hot summer days.

2. Unstable blood sugar

Diabetic patients may experience symptoms such as dizziness and weakness if their blood sugar is too high or too low. Among them, the harm of hypoglycemia is more obvious, especially for patients taking insulin. When dizziness occurs, you must be particularly vigilant about the complications of hypoglycemia and monitor your blood sugar at night.

In addition, some diabetic patients may also experience dizziness due to some bad living habits, which causes a sudden increase in blood sugar in a short period of time. In order to avoid harm to the body caused by a sharp increase in blood sugar, medical treatment should be sought in time.

3. Anemia

When anemia is severe to a certain extent and the blood in the body can no longer supply the brain's needs normally, brain hypoxia will occur, causing dizziness. In addition, the patient will also have symptoms such as pale, rough, and dull skin, insomnia, nightmares, memory loss, and inattention.

4. Diseases of the vertebrae

Dizziness caused by cervical vertebral disease can manifest in many forms, such as vertigo, accompanied by dizziness, shaking, unsteady standing, a feeling of sinking and floating, etc., and usually neck or occipital pain may occur after getting up in the morning. Some patients may also have symptoms of cervical nerve root compression such as upper limb weakness and numbness of fingers. The occurrence of spinal diseases is often related to poor sleeping and sitting postures and sports injuries.

5. Heart disease

People with heart problems may experience dizziness in the early stages. This is mainly due to atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries of the heart, which leads to insufficient blood supply and then causes dizziness. The dizziness in this situation is different from the symptoms of peripheral vertigo. Patients rarely have a feeling of dizziness and nausea.

6. Thyroid dysfunction

Thyroid dysfunction can also cause dizziness, and clinically patients usually suffer from balance disorders as the main symptom, especially in middle-aged women. Sometimes it is accompanied by dizziness, menstrual abnormalities, etc. Further examination is needed to clarify the disease.
