Thank you all! Fortunately my dizziness and feeling unwell resolved over a period of about 2 weeks. Interestingly during that time I noticed I had a boil-like thing on my upper left leg, and I'm fairly convinced that I had a tick bite with the head embedded. I think this explains my unwell phase. As my leg resolved I felt better. My GP thought maybe it was a white tailed spider bite, but it looked more like a tick bite when I checked images online. I did have a tick bite many years ago which made me feel unwell.
