Anxiety, un-balanced, and pressure in my head and ears... Help

[circuit]

Hi there,
i have just noticed this forum today and was hoping someone could give me some advice.This is going to be long.. Four years ago i started to have servere dizzyness it would last for about 5 to 10 seconds, my ears would feel blocked and my head felt so much pressure and then it would dissapear. I was under the E/N/T specialist for 2 years and had various tests, such as balance, MRI scan and a nerves test and all came back o.k. I was taking medication for Menieres Disease for 18 months but this did nothing and now after all this time i am starting to have Anxiety Attacks constantly thinking about my breathing and feel like i am hyperventilating slightly. I have started to take beta blockers for the anxitey but it does not seem to help. The dizzy episodes are more like an unbalanced feeling, things are not spinning but they do seem to move slightly and if i try to walk i walk like i am drunk. I am thinking of trying Hopi ear candles to see if it can help my balance. I am sure unless i can find out what is causing me to feel pressure in my head and ears and also off balance i will always suffer from this anxiety.

Any suggestions are greatfully received.

Can you have all of these symptoms even when you don't feel any anxiety? I've had the same thing going on for 6 months but my pressure is constant. The severity changes but its always there. Had all the tests done and they say Im fine but Im definitely not fine.

That's amazing,i tried it for 20 seconds as i lose my balance when i close my eyes,after the 20 seconds i had turned 90 degrees without realizing.

Wow.. Liz485, I think your correct..  I have panic attacks, head rushes, dizzy, can't breath, worry, I'm 63,caregiver for my dementia 93 yr old mother and just lost my husband 3 years ago.  I have tried everything to feel better in the past 20 years.. and I still fell like crap.  maybe I'm thinking myself into feeling like crap... Thank YOU for your message this morning and I sure hope I can change things around. I'm so tired of feeling bad.

it does help, it's called the Epley maneuver, you can find video on youtube.
