Hi, while these are common symptoms other symptoms also include loss of balance, blackouts, and loss of hearing. However it could also not be this, the best thing is to wait for advice from a specialist,

all the best.

Thankyou for your reply ..i guess like most ppl you turn to google to try n find out whats causing your problems (bad idea i know) but i think its just an instict ...i think why i think it is AN is because of the pressure in my left temple and the sudden onset of ear ache n the dizziness i havent left my bed for over a week ..i even had an attack in bed that lasted about half hour where the slightest movement of any part of my body sent me into an horrendous floating sensation (worst feeling i have ever expetienced) was so scared if it was ever going to end ..what other things could this be ..i am waiting to see a specialist (on the NHS)which could take months ..i have decided to pay privately for an MRI scan ..honestly dont think i can take much mote of this not knowing ..again thankyou for your reply x
