Generally these symptoms that you are describing is caused by an inner ear issue. Try to get up a little slower and see if this helps, if this doesn’t help then you should see a doctor.

The obvious answer is not to stand up quickly.
Having had the problem myself, I’d advise you to cut down on your salt intake. That helped me.
