This is one of the strangest and most depressing things that I´ve experienced. I have some kind of balance disorder that makes me feel like gravity suddenly disappears, then comes back, along with a constant feeling of swaying. I feel like this 24 hours a day. It feels like I´m rocking to my pulse and breathing and when I close my eyes my body feels unreal. The only place where I feel better is in a car, where I don´t notice the swaying. No matter how hard I try to tell my brain how things are, my world never stands still. I´ve had this for over 6 months now and doctors haven´t been able to figure anything out. Something´s been wrong with my ears, especially the left one, tinnitus, feelings of fullness and sensitivity to sound. Two ear doctors have insisted there´s nothing wrong with my ear since there doesn´t seem to be any fluid in the middle ear and a test for the balance organs gave ok results. I went to a neurologist, we did an MRI and some other tests and he said that there´s nothing wrong with me.
I´ve been depressed for over ten years and I know it can cause dizziness, but this is different. Depression causes tension and stiffness but I don´t know how that could lead to this either. Symptoms get worse after taking aspirin since this has to do with my pulse. Symptoms also get worse after taking sedatives, it´s like the waves get bigger. This didn´t start after any trip, so I don´t know about mal de debarquement. Besides, I´m not satisfied with mal de debarquement as an explanation for anything, there has to be something behind it.
I´ve become totally isolated and can´t do anything anymore. Can´t go to work, can´t meet people, can´t go to the gym. I feel so spaced out and empty. This disorder takes most of my concentration and it feels difficult to do even simple things. I can´t remember anything anymore. This is terrible! I´ve never heard of anything quite like this, which makes me feel hopeless. If someone has, please help.

hi
yes i too have suffered from swaying neausious dizzy feeling i was dianosed with low blood pressure and an ear infection
when your ears or eaustachian tubes are infected you suffer from above symptoms and also some annoying sensations like being blocked off from the world. so really you should have your eaustachian tubes checked
mine came back ......eaustachian tube dysfunction
best of luck
