There is a delicate balance of water, salt (sodium), potassium etc in the fluid that flows thru the middle ear. when there is an issue (like ETD etc), drink a lot of water and make sure ur getting enough potassium like potatoes and bananas. also, if u lose weight, the fleshy part of your etubes lose weight/ mass & can create problems- so gain weight. get yr ears checked 4 broken off crystal(s). And: the vertigo may also be due to your etube staying open longer than it should due to inertia when u move yr head too fast. Also- decrease the amount of histamine in yr diet (see foods w low histamine) and get yr B9 (folate) checked to see if it's too high. and: u may have migraines w aura ( as its called). solution: do an elisa igg test 4 food intolerances. dont eat any if the foods on the left side of the igg list for 3 months. believe it or not: food intolerances r a huge part of migraines and inflammation (which r happening possibly due to not enough, or the right digestive enzymes being produced cause of back up from your intestines putting more work on yr liver/pancreas causing too much mucous in the duct. Finally: food intolerances can cause anxiety, panic disorders, depression, migraines w or w/o aura. fixing yr diet and u may get rid of ALL yr issues w/o ever having to take a single med. anyways: raise all these potentials w yr doctor. and see a few doctors til u get the right treatment and understanding. the brain gut relationship is 'new' to MDs and many r sliw to catch on or catch up.
Have you considered superior canal dehiscent?
took bath with cold water , some entered the ear . had a bad vertigo( dizziness) soon after that which lasted for hours and was also associated with vomiting
I got the same feeling yesterday, but it happened instantialy, you see I was tubing and I fell of on a angle that made my ear to fill up with a far amont of water, that second I got the dizzy drunk feeling and was not able to continue tubing, the next morning [now ATM] my ear still has water in it do it feels, will this disappear by its self or will I have to see a doctor ????
Would absolutely love to chat with some of you regarding the ear and dizzy issues. I too have had all these symptoms with no help from doctors. If any of you are on facebook, friend request me and lets chat. Maybe together we can figure out something to help us all feel better. http://www.facebook.com/blueeyesbb
You might have an allergy to mold which is causing fluid/pressure in your ear which could cause dizziness.
