i have it happen occassionaly at work, when i bend down to do something, then stand back up, things spin and change color. if this is consistently a problem, i'd definitely call your doctor. if it's just once in a while, i wouldn't worry too much, just make sure you're taking care of yourself as far as diet and exercise and the like.

it happens to me sometimes and I don't even smoke. Or I've had dizzy spells where the room spins, like being really drunk? The doctor told me that it could be hunger and to eat and wait a couple of hours for the food to get into the bloodstream. Also, taking a decongestant can help, I took Alka seltzer cold, it could be due to a head cold which may affect your ears.
So my advice is to eat something and take a decongestant. If still no better, see a doctor.

I just went to the doctor over this and he diagnosed me with BPV
(Benign Positional Vertigo). Go to the doctor and have it checked up.
