Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Dizziness even in sitting position is concerning. It could be due to orthostatic hypotension, vasovagal or neurogenic but needs to be evaluated further. It could be due to variety of causes, or it could be transient. Perhaps if the dizziness is not troubling your day-to-day work, then you may wait for few days. Until then, you may take proper HY Chat Doctor.  Do not panic.However, if the problem is persistent, you should see a doctor at the earliest and get evaluated further. I will suggest you undergo routine blood count, ESR, blood electrolytes, tests for vestibular (balance) system like electronystagmography or rotation tests to diagnose the cause for dizziness. Your local physician or GP will know about the test. He/she will, can order the test after complete history and thoroughly clinical examination like temperature, pulse, blood pressure which will enable us to arrive a diagnosis.
