For about a week on and off I've been really dizzy when I turn my head either way, stand up or sit down. Also my vision is really blurry and then it goes back to normal (like a pulse is the best way I can describe it) Its making me feel rather sick! Any ideas on what could be wrong? Or anyone been through anything similar?

I've been eating more aswell and not on purpose I constantly feel hungry, I think that's why I'm drinking so much. But I think I'll go back to one small meal a day to make up for eating so much, once I've figures out why I'm so damn dizzy! (and not eating isn't the cause, coz I havnt done that in a while)
I guess the only way to know is to get check out by the doc
If it's getting worse then you definitely need to get it checked out.
It's not that I'm scared of going to my GP it's just I'd rather not, and I've not been taking my med's which she may ask about and I don't really want to get into that conversation with her. But I know not taking my meds has nothing to do with feeling dizzy.
If you're really reluctant to go to your own GP, how about either NHS direct or a 'walk-in centre'? Talking to a nurse or doctor should tell you whether you need to take this further.
Dizziness is a tricky symptom as it could be related to any number of things, so as the others say, ignoring it might not be the best option here.
