Sorry to hear your having these issues Alex. I have been on a pretty serious blood pressure regime since my heart attack three years ago. It can take a few weeks to get the med balance right. There are a fair number of meds that can be used and some of them are not well tolerated and have a range of side effects.
It is also very important to not let yourself get dehydrated. Watch how you get up and down, as something as simple as bending down to pick up an item of laundry to hang it on the cloths line, can start to give you the spins. In time you learn to manage, and it stabilizes.
