Hi! Some time ago i posted a message at the Heart Disorders Board, because i thought i had a problem with my heart, but now i think it could be related to my ear.

Well, the problem is that sometimes ive got vertigo (the last time was a month ago or so): I wake up with some dizzyness, and when i arrived home, i layed in bed, and suddenly (i was not moving) everything started to spin!. This has happened to me 3 o 4 times in a period of time of 2 years.
Also, (although i dont have any big problem with hearing to people or anything) i think i hear worse with the right ear than with the left one.
By the way, i tried to do the Valsalva method, and the left ear pops, but the right one does not.
Also, when i eat something like chewing-gum or a sandwich i notice that some kind of "cracks" near my right ear (this was because of a blow i received to my face when i was 16). Because of this, my dentist made me a splint(?) that i have to use every night.
And, i've got tonsillitis (chronic tonsiles stones), (not the acute one).

Also, the last time i got dizzy, the night before i masturbate, and it made me wonder if there's some kind of relation between this and the vertigo.

What do you think is causing me all these problems? Thank you!!

(Im 22 years old)

Other symptoms ive got:

Asthma, fatigue, hair loss.

Vertigo is usually caused by an inflammation of the inner ear balance canals, usually from migration of a cold virus (often after the cold seems cured.) Your mention of "chrinic tonsillitis" may be a clue.
It is usually self terminating in a couple days/weeks. Drugs like meclizine and dramamine can help a lot with the symptoms.

However, sometimes it can be caused differently and go on for a LONG time.

thanks zip2play!

Yes, i also think the tonsillitis may be the cause. I'm thinking about removing my tonsils, cause it's horrible to have those stones (i hate them!)...maybe the tonsillitis could also cause the feeling of being tired sometimes...who knows.
