Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
This may mean Cerebro-Vascular Insufficiency.
The same process that had affected the heart before could also be affecting blood vessels elsewhere.
It is advisable to see a neurologist. MRI of brain as also MRA may well be necessary for further assessment and assistance.
You should re-assess your cardiovascular and coronary artery status.
Abnormal rhythm, change in coronary status and ventricular function have to be evaluated.
You were lucky / you will be lucky - your concern like this, will get you investigated and treated.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
