It probably would be helpful to see an ENT, they can test for all types of ear issues, at least rule things out. It doesn't seem like most people on the forum have vertigo (the spinning sensation you're describing), so you may have something ear related going on. I did, got it fixed and no longer have the vertigo, just periodic waves of dizziness, not the same.

Just like other doctors, all ENT's are not equal, so do some homework before you choose one. I saw a regular ENT then switched to a neuro-otologist (specialty within ENT field) who has been fantastic.

There is a great informational website on dizziness and balance by a Dr. Hain. I found it after my doctor prescribed vestibular rehab early on and I was researching what exactly to expect.

I still hope I'll wake up and feel normal one of these days! I am a lot closer to "before" than I was though, so maybe after enough days I'll get there...we can all hope!
