Hi Cheryl, I'm sorry you are feeling unwell. When I feel lightheaded and weak, it's usually my blood pressure, which tends to run very low. You may have been dehydrated? There is also an inner ear disease called Meniere's, but I think it's more of a "room spinning" feeling, not dizziness. You can get a virus that affects the inner ear as well. Did you get checked out by your GP? I'm not sure it has anything to do with MDS, unless your Hb is very low, and you would probably have other symptoms, plus it wouldn't go away til you were transfused. Of course, I'm a retired RN, not a doctor! I would start with your GP. Good luck, Margaret
