So I have had the dizzies and vertigo for 6 months now. They were constant and i still feel this odd but i do feel alot better than when it all began. I have been to many a doctor and no diagnosis. Lately I have been experiecing that my ears or ear feels full at times. I notice it most in the morning. Sometimes when i breath in i notice it. I know this has connections with one dizzy syndrome and i was wondering which one. I also have been wondering if it is BPV. I read in another thread that if you roll over in bed and its dark you still feel as if you are rolling for a bit afterwards. I notice this alot. I notice it when i park my car on an incline and it rolls backward a bit and then stops, I feel as if I am continuing moving a bit after I know i am not. Anyways Id love any info on the ear thing or the BPV.

Thanks alot,

Walty

Walty,

I think the full ears thing can be connected to any of the inner ear disorders, I certainly had that feeling with VN and still do on occasions. I think maybe the one you're thinking of is Meniere's but this would also give spontaneous, episodic vertigo attacks with periods of remission and hearing loss of a certain type.

Also, I know people who's balance recovered after VN/Labs but who still get the full ears. Who knows, but I think its pretty common.

Hope this helps.

Hi Walty,

Just wanted to say that the bit about feeling extra motion after the movement has been made is classic of really any type of inner ear disorder. I like you would also get the feeling of the motion continuing after it had stopped, like it was exagerated. But it was not BPPV rather just inner ear dysfunction caused by labs. The exact symptoms and weird and wonderful strange symptoms you get are dependant on which part of the ear is damaged. What you describe sounds very like labs, not that I am any expert! Are you under a good ENT or other specialist?

ive been to two ENT's who both said it probably had to do with an ear infection or my sinuses. One said dont worry just deal with it, the other gave me a sinus spray. Its just kind of ridiculous because neither even seemed to want to diagnose the problem. I had a hearing test, blood test, MRI etc. all showed that everything was normal. I just wish someone had some sort of idea as to what this is.

you really should see an otoneurologist. they are also called neuro-otologists, otolaryngologists, and i think there is another name too. they are a little more specialised than an ENT. i've had pressure an fullness for almost 2 years now (on and off for the most part) and was told nothing by my ENT.
