I too have noticed periodic post treatment dizziness. I most often experience it when getting up from a chair etc. It usually happens 2-3 times per day and has not caused me to pass out. For the record, however, during treatment I did pass out once and went down hard. I have not brought this periodic light headedness to the attention of my doctors because I was thinking it was something that would pass as I continued to exercise, get stronger and generally recover from treatment.

Has anyone had the dizziness symptom and then had it disappear with time?
