What Causes Lightheadedness And Chest Flutters While On Carvedilol And Atorvastatin?
I use to take carvedilol 12.5 which was increased to 25 mg, and I had a block in my back last week, I have also been under stress. For the past few days I have been feeling lightheaded and feel flutter in my chest. I had a heart attack in 2000 and 4 stents. I am on atorvastin and carvedilol. I also drink 3-4 cups of coffee Any idea why I have been feeling lightheaded and chest flutters.
