A patient with type 2 diabetes reports lightheadedness upon standing from the plinth during a therapy session. Their resting heart rate is also noted to be abnormally high. Which rationale BEST explains these findings? 

Option 1- The patient's symptoms are due to poor circulation from peripheral artery disease 
Option 2- The patient's symptoms are due to an inner ear dysfunction, a common complication of diabetes 
Option 3- These are signs of autonomic neuropathy, which can impair cardiovascular responses 
Option 4- These findings are a normal response to standing and are not clinically significant in diabetic patients
