I've been having these weird episodes where I stand up and suddenly feel really dizzy and lightheaded. My vision goes a bit blurry, and I lose my balance to the point where I almost fall over. It's pretty scary. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?

My father is 73 and his MRI report shows cauda equina compression. His blood count is low too, so surgery might be risky at his age.
