I am experiencing dizziness, even with eyes closed or open, everything looks like a rolodex, nausea, cold sweat.  According to my husband, my pulse seemed fine during my latest episode.  I do have a physical coming up next week and need to know exactly what this condition may be.  Can you help me figure out what these symptoms may represent?  I want to be prepared for my doctors visit and ask the proper questions in order to get the proper tests performed.

It could also be a blood pressure issue. Although I agree with ireneo it could just be an infection and the inner ear is where your blance is controlled through the semi circular canals. If these become infected you feel as though you have been on a fair ground ride all the time. If you have an infection, it is likely your blood pressure will be up which will add to the symptoms. Blood pressure can raise a lot without the heart pumping faster, it just requires the arteries to constrict.

It may not be heart related. Perhaps you have something going on in the inner ear. That will definitely cause dizziness which in turn causes nausea and cold sweats. Any sign of fever?
