Hi I had a massive heart attack in March since then I have been doing really well but over the week or so I keep on getting a fuzzy head and bit dizzy it’s really awful I went to the doctor she done all her checks had ECG etc I was even there for hour she was really good but she said everything was ok the thing it could be is the pills which she said she can’t stop as anyone had this.

Sorry to hear you are feeling so ‘muzzy’. I know exactly what you mean. Could you list your meds? With a little more information, others might be able to share some of the same experience. Thanks .

At one time or another i have been prescribed the medications that you are on, but none of them have caused the problem that you are experiencing. I would discuss with your GP the possibility of changing your medications one by one. This way you will continue to be covered and hopefully find which one, if any of them, is causing your problems.

Thank you for your reply I have already been to my doc one she couldn’t find anything wrong also she said she couldn’t change the medication because she doesn’t know which one is making me feel like that. So what I am going to do see how I go if it keeps on I will ask to see a consultant.

In my opinion your GP is not doing right by you. There are alternatives to all those medications which can be tried one at a time. However, seeing there is going to be no assistance from that quarter, I would certainly try the change of timings as FiftyNotOut suggests.

Hi - I’m on the same meds as you and sometimes get the same thing. I usually feel better after I’ve eaten so I’d assumed it’s probably blood sugar. Do you take ramipril in the morning? If so, try taking bisoprolol in the morning and ramipril in the evening. Also - have you had your iron levels checked? You could be a bit low, which would definitely give you a fuzzy head x
