dizzy spells

I get dizzy more when sitting than standing and while exercising I feel fine.  More than dizzy I just feel out of it.  Feels like its hard to breath sometimes.  Arms and legs tingle too.  Had a million tests done, quit smoking but I am using the e-cig.  Had the spells before that though.  Feel like its lungs and lack of oxygen or something neuro.  Any thoughts?

I know you have probably had loads of tests but it's important that each time you feel dizzy you make sure your sugar levels are up. Try and keep a piece of bread with you that you can put a bit under your tongue when the symptoms start. You can also have a salty drink like Bovril. Blood sugar levels go up and down and are not necessarily detected in tests if you are on a good day. You could also check your ears. Some people suffer from vertigo  which often flares up from time to time and it's difficult to be detected.
