What Causes Dizziness And Fatigue While Treating BP?
I became light headed, cold sweats, overall weakness. lasted about 30 minutes ad was alleviated when I lay down but came back when I stood. I managed to drink some water and seemed to feel better. still a little weak. No chest or shoulder pain although I have had high BP for decades. I am 64 and male. are there other things to look for to help determine what to do if anything. I seems to have passed except for overall weakness.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would like to tell you that considering your age and high blood pressure your symptoms are indicating towards coronary artery disease or you had a silent myocardial infarction which requires basic cardiac evaluation.
It's recommended for you to get an ECG, Echocardiography done and personally consult a Cardiologist for further management.
Hopefully this information will answer your query.
