Hi, this is my first time here, and I need your help.
4 days ago I was watching Netflix with my girlfriend, and from nowhere I got a severe vertigo that lasted 2 minutes more or less.
On the following day I was also watching Netflix and then I had vertigo again for 6 hours, I went to the hospital, but they couldn't see anything.
*Important note: I've had problems with my left ear since 3 years. Whenever there is loud sound or a little bit of loud sound... My ear makes some sort of noise and it really bothers me and sometimes it hurts a bit. So I started to put a sound cancelling foam in my ear so that doesn't bother me.*
Anyways, after I went to the hospital, me and my girlfriend came into some conclusions and we did a "self-diagnostic". We ended up thinking that the vertigo could be caused by lack of excersise + sleeping way to much, or by the glasses (2 years old), or because of my left ear.
Dehidratation, alcohol, drugs or food intoxication are not the case.
So I started doing excersise and having a normal sleeping rhythm, but today it happened again while I was playing a game.
Now, before paying the game, I was in the computer the whole time with no problems and I played other games with no problem, but the camera of this game is always moving, same with the Netflix series we were watching.
I came to the conclusion that the vertigo came only where looking at content on the monitor that was in constant movement, since this did not happened while reading mails, being on Facebook, or playing certain games or watching certain series where the camera is stable. But as soon as I would watch this other less-stable content, the vertigo would come along.
Now I'm left with only two probable causes, the glasses, or my problem with my ear.
I obviously think it's my ear which finally reached the point of having serious issues.
Now that I told you all of this, I would REALLY appreciate if you could give me a possible sickness that I might have, so that I can know how to prevent it or how to treat it by my own before I go to the hospital.
Thanks!
