Dizzy spells

I was diagnosed with MVP years ago. Recently I have been experiencing spells of dizziness. They usually occur when I arise from a laying position or from a crouching position. I have always been very careful when I get up from a laying position because I do get dizzy. However, lately, no matter how slowly I arise, I get dizzy, see light spots and feel like I am going to pass out. I was at an event this weekend, we were constructing cardboard boats for a race, and I became extremely dizzy again. All I was doing was bending over. Why am I experiencing these spells? Is it attributed to the MVP?
