Interesting to see so many comments about the dizziness and food. I thought it was just me. I have been experiencing the same thing but it's only in the AM when I add the meds to that that are taken with food and it can be extremely concerning. I've tried different foods and ruled our carbs because it happens with eggs. I find the best thing I can eat to avoid this is turkey sandwiches (every deli section of the local grocery stores know me well) or tuna salad. I guess these things are meant for the "go figure" files.

Hi @joaf37, It looks like you are a new member, I'd like to WELCOME you to Mayo Connect! You have probably already noticed that in addition to being a warm, safe and welcoming community, there is a lot of information shared by patients and caretakers. If you take some time to explore you will learn from others and be able to share with others too. I live with HCM--Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and had open heart surgery at Mayo Rochester a few years ago. I don't have any of the rhythm issues I used to have thankfully, but I still have some issues because HCM doesn't go away.
I see that you have posted in the Atrial Fib group and the Heart and Blood health group. It took me some time to learn how to navigate around here because I am low-tech, but hopefully you will find it much easier. I read on one of your posts that you are a Mayo patient. How did you find out about Connect? What was it that lured you to this fine on-line site and gave you the confidence to post finally?
