This condition, which is called **reactive hypoglycemia**, is one of the common causes of dizziness. ### 3. **Postural hypotension** A rapid change in body position, such as standing up from a lying or sitting position, can cause a drop in blood pressure, resulting in dizziness. This condition is known as **postural hypotension**.
After surgery, the body may lose the balance of electrolytes such as potassium, sodium and magnesium. This issue can cause nervous system dysfunction and dizziness. ### 5. **deficiency of vitamins and minerals** The absorption of some vitamins and minerals such as vitamin B12, iron and folate decreases after surgery.
