What Causes Dizziness In During High Blood Pressure?

I saw my cardiologist 2 days ago because I felt that my heart was fluttering . ( I am on meds to take care of my A-fib.) An EKG was done and it seemed perfect. Now I am experiencing dizziness which comes and goes. BP is about 129/80 with an increase of the upper number going to 143 at times. Should I be overly concerned? I have an echo gram scheduled in a couple of weeks.

an echocardiogram will help you, dizziness may be due to microembolism due to a fib, it could be due to fluctuations in blodd pressure too,
