Can Atenolol Cause Dizziness And Fainting With Smoking?

I often get dizzy. I understand that most of those times it seems to be brought on by coughing, which is often followed by seizure-like physical movment and/or fainting. Sometimes however, the dizziness happiness by simply turning. I take Attenenol for blood pressure (heart patient). I have seen 2 neurologists, both of which refuse to consider any real testing, because I smoke.
