I've been taking Dilantin for mild seizures as well as Cardizem for high blood pressure. The Dilantin for 1.5 years and the Cardizem for 10 years. Recently, my blood pressure has rapidly increased, and I have been experiencing sensations that start with a light headedness and feeling like I'm going to faint, and then followed by very rapid heartbeat. This lasts for about 2 mins. and then it is over. Some days this is repeated several times. I believe it might be caused by the two medications interacting. Have you heard of this before?
