What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Temples, Fatigue And Light-headedness?

I have been having tingling in my forehead and temples accompanied by a slight headache. I was just recently put on blood thinning medication (Plavix) after two stents were place in one of artery to the heart. I was recently taken off my hypertension medication (labetalol) to determine if that would abate the tingling, featique and light headedness - but it still there. I also have a low pulse (35-49) and my balance is off as if I have had too many drinks. I am under the treatment and consultation with a cardiologist. I am 70 years and wondering if this part of aging or something else is going on?
