Did he check it wasn't a middle ear infection ? I had that and the room was spinning and I had balance problems I also have anxiety but my doctor ruled that out straight away I had anti biotics and it cleared up in a couple of weeks I really hope you feel better soon as its rotten to have those symptoms ❤

He looked in my ears and said they looked perfectly normal. I had no dizziness for four days , then had a slight symptom this am, he's put me on aropX 20 mg.

Oh I'm sorry I was hoping it was your ears as that is easy to treat

Do you ever use the relaxation videos on You Tube ? They are really lovely there are loads and loads for anxiety

Take good care lots of lovely deep breathing x

Thanks for your thoughts, I just find it so hard to believe this is my anxiety cuddling this dizziness, my anxiety tells me it's something else, I am exhausted fighting it, waiting for the next dizzy spell. If it was my middle ear surely I would have it all the time, o don't get nausea , please please is there such a thing as anxiety dizziness, that comes and goes, is this the rest of my life, I just want it to go.

The sensation is really terrifying , i panic then that's it , into the dying thing, the, must be something more thing , the endless googling , it just goes on and on and on.

I don't know how long I can do this for.

My doc believes it's anxiety , he's put me on aropax 20mg daily have only just started them today.

Hope I can through this, thanks for listening everyone.
