swimmy head

I am pretty sure I have meniers, lately I have a swimmy head (is the only way I can explain it) and a feeling on one side of my head that is also hard to explain. Its not a headache but its odd. Does any one know I am talking about?

Hello and hope you are doing well.

Dizziness can have different sensations.  If your dizziness feels like you are spinning or the room is spinning (and especially if associated with nausea or vomiting), this might be due to an inner ear problem.  I would recommend that you contact your primary care physician. He or she might refer you to an ENT for further evaluation and treatment.  I would strongly caution you not to drive or operate heavy machinery while dizzy as you might injure yourself or others.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
