Hi
What meds are you on?
Have you AF?
Lightheadedness for me means ... BP too low and therefore meds need another evaluation.
A heart monitor will give an accurate picture of what is happening.
Dr tend to up Cardiologist's prescribed meds or their prescription rather than have a monitor.
I've just stopped Bisoprolol a BB Beta Blocker for Light Headedness and Vision problems.
Yes it was BP too low for me.
I take Diltiazem only for control BP and H/R - low dose 120mg CD in AM. Great.
Also BBs and CCBs need t be separated by 12 hrs.
I need rapidH/R Day control but Night my normal is 47avg. So OK. Diltiazem taken 8am runs out of strength during afternoon and rises to 80s.
cheri JOY. (Tuckie)

I take no meds. I have reactions to meds because my body is used to none. I do not need to have a doc confirm what specifically is called to know when my heart beat is going too fast or jumping around like a ping pong ball. I investigate and take action to eliminate what is triggering it.
