Labyrinthitis

I was diagnosed with Labyrinthitis two and a half weeks ago, I had a viral infection which has gone but I’m left with labyrinthitis in my ears. Right now I have horrible pressure in my left ear which seems to come and go, I had severe vertigo which has somewhat subsided but as it has done that my vision has become blurred and almost doubled, I can’t focus on anything and I’ve noticed I’ll faze out almost because of it. I also can’t think clearly but when I’m needing to remember something I can fine even though at the same time I can’t think. My perception has also changed severely, I’ll think im in a dream and then try and snap back to normal, my perception of my surroundings just seems to be abnormal. Its difficult to write down every symptom but that’s what I’m experiencing now, it’s making me feel quite down, even though I’ve been told it will go it doesn’t feel like it will. Has anyone else felt like this?

It will pass. I have not experienced it but have heard of it and it will. Give it time. You will look back and wonder what the fuss was about. Honestly, ears are sensitive and it can take them a while to settle back after a cold or flu or infection. Try relaxation techniques, when you feel the anxiety coming on focus on breathing and deep breathing, slowly, have a steam if you can steaming is very relaxing and ears seem to love it too. Change your focus put the TV on distract…..it will pass. :heart:
