Hi Amanda, I was diagnosed 3 years ago after a stroke, I am on a statin, blood pressure pills and an aspirin . I was extremely active person . Chopping and stacking my yearly wood for win t we , shovelling, walking 2 .5 miles first thing in the morning and a t supper. Taking care of family members that are high stress.

I am on a statin, high blood pressure pills , an aspirin a day, my heart is erratic, I fire very easily, and am losing interest in everything. Altho my cardiologist is ordering nuclear testing, she feels the disease is progressing and there is little probably can be done. I'm looking for any input from anyone. Dizzy spells and off balance has become a problem....anyone have any symptoms like this.
