How To Cure Dizziness With A History Of Cardiac Artery Disease?
I was walking across a room and began to feel dizzy, continued until I could get to a wall to stabilize. As I approached the wall, my left foot seemed to drag a bit on the floor, and my left knee jerked a few times. I have history of Cardiac Artery Disease, no stroke or heart attacks, infrequent angina. Any ideas? I am 60, 207 lbs. 5'8, had a minor vehicle accident last week and am under chiropractic treatment.

Hi,
It may be caused by brain supplying artery disease. If you have cardiac artery disease it is possible that there may be changes in other arteries as well, such as arteries supplying blood to the brain. To check it I would advise you to undergo duplex ultrasound if neck vessels.
Take care
