dizziness still a week after a shock

Hi there,

I'm new here but trying to find out information. I received my first shock from my icd just over a week ago after having the device for 7 years. Since that night I've been dizzy on and off but now mostly on. Has anyone else had this problem? The clinic seemed to ignore it and just focussed on needing to change my meds to something stronger. It isn't related to the new medication as it started right after the shock and I didn't change my medication until 4 days later. I do see my cardiologist tomorrow but sometimes when it isn't directly about the heart they don't know or ignore the concern. I've had a really good schedule of working out the past several months but now I've had to cut back just because of the dizziness.

I've seen many posts about people being concerned about exercise after having a device so thought I would let you know that yesterday I raced my first marathon since having my pacemaker fitted in fall 2004.
