What Causes Dizziness While On Metoprolol?

Hi Dr. Rynne: I am new to Metoprolol; have been taking since late January of this year; I also take Losartan for high blood pressure; I had a hemorrhagic stroke in July 2016; I have been experiencing brief come-and-go very very light feelings of discomfort in my head; are these attributable to taking Metoprolol?
