Dizziness
People with an enlarged heart sometimes experience dizziness. The term dizziness can be used to describe a broad range of sensations. Light-headedness, unsteadiness and disorientation are commonly associated with dizziness. People experiencing dizziness report feeling faint, weak or unsteady.
It may also lead to an illusion that a person or their surroundings are spinning, also known as vertigo. Although not dangerous on its own, dizziness can affect balance and may cause falls.
