No you don't know what your doctor will do, but this is all the more reason you need to see him.  He may want to switch your medication completely.

To Kobuk:  Due to your age I would say the "clogged" veins in your brain is plaque build-up, and you're probably aware of having it in other areas of the body as well.

Hi, I too suffer from dizziness - went to the same kind of drs u did.  My ENT said that I haved small clogged veins in my head.  He doesnt know if the dizziness if from that!  My reg dr said I should try and live with it.  I got a stroller for my elderly dog so we can take walks & I can use it to stablize me!  Sometimes feel like Im going to pass out!  They can figure out what it is!!!!

Yes it sounds like depression and anxiety. Job changes are always quite stressful and you may need medication adjustment/change.  Talk to your doctor about this asap.
Good luck

You need to contact your doctor about these new symptoms.  You made need to switch medications, and always work closely with him on this.
