Of the 1000's of posts I've read on this site, I have not heard of radiation causing dizziness. That is only to say it must not be that common of a side effect but as we are all told... everyone can react differently. That being said, your RO's seemingly lack of concern would give me concern but please try to avoid stopping Tx. Hound your RO until you get answers. The squeaky wheel gets attention approach.
