Have gone through the exact same issues as you said. I have an appointment scheduled to see a neurosurgeon, but I'm wondering if like all the others, he won't find anything. Will you please let me know what type of specialist you went to that diagnosed this?
Blessings!
Hallo, Lorraine. Mein Beileid, und ich kann das total nachvollziehen. Bitte beachten Sie, dass, wenn Sie verrückt sind, ich es auch bin 
. Ich habe einen Termin bei einem HNO-Arzt im Juni und werde die Ergebnisse posten. Wie Sie haben alle anderen Tests normal zurückgegeben....und ich fühle mich alles andere als das.
Ich bemerke das Alter von Ihnen und Terrie und auch mein eigenes. Das lässt mich darüber nachdenken, wie alt der Rest der Leute ist, die zu dieser bestimmten Diskussion beitragen. Wenn einige der anderen Patienten das lesen, können Sie uns bitte Ihr Alter mitteilen? Das scheint uns in unseren frühen bis mittleren 50ern zu treffen. Ich frage mich nur nach dem Muster.
Ich kann den Kummer in diesem Thread spüren, aber es tröstet mich zu wissen, dass andere Menschen ähnliche Probleme wie ich haben.
Vor etwa 7 Wochen wurde ich mit einer Art "Grippe" krank, aber es war keine Grippe. Es war auch keine Mononukleose oder Mandelentzündung (meine Mandeln sind entzündet).
Bisher lautet meine einzige Diagnose "<a class="track-event" data-tracking-category="Forums Autolink" data-tracking-action="Comment Clicked" href="/health/anxiety" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Angst</a>", mein Blutbild ist in Ordnung, meine Brust ist frei (2 Röntgenaufnahmen), mein Herz ist in Ordnung (EKG) und mehrere <a class="track-event" data-tracking-category="Forums Autolink" data-tracking-action="Comment Clicked" href="/health/blood-tests" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bluttests</a> sagen, dass mit mir alles in Ordnung ist.
Ich denke immer wieder, ich hätte etwas Ernstes, weil ich mich schwach fühle, erschöpft bin, wie betrunken gehe und auch Dinge wie Nachtschweiß und Kälteempfindlichkeit (keine heißen Schauer) habe.
Ich muss vielleicht Monate warten, um einen HNO-Arzt zu sehen, und ich bin verzweifelt und frage mich, ob es etwas Ernstes ist.
Was das Ohr angeht, hat mein linkes Ohr vor all dem mehr Ohrenschmalz produziert als normal, und jetzt fühlt es sich so an, als wäre es verstopft, weil ich es nicht mit der "Nase zuhalten und ausatmen"-Methode freibekomme. <img src="https://community.patient.info/uploads/default/emoticons/emoticons/eek.gif" alt="eek" />
Hello ladies. I'm 44 and I've had problems for years. Let me try to sum this up in as little words as possible. When I was about 5 (Maybe younger) i had partial seizures. Docs, at that time, didn't know what it was. I also had very sensitive hearing. They stopped when I was 10. Two things happened at age 10....i started my period and a lot of stress was lifted off me. The next 20 yrs was great. No problems. After my 2nd kid, age 28, I started to have visual migraines. The lightening bolt that would grow out of ur vision and I would also experience my vision shaking from side to side....not my eyes. Freaked me out. Just had to hold still and it would pass after about 20 to 30 mins. Then the crap really hit the fan after my 3rd kid. My partial seizures started back. The visual migraines stopped after about a year after partials started again. Then I had my 4th kid at age 34.
And can u guess what docs said about everything?😁 Everything was "within normal limits". I know u all prob hate that phrase too, huh? Lol. Anyway, I have done sooooo much research. Years worth. And I too have the dizzy, ringing, feels like my head is filled with water, ear pressure, sinus pressure, constant clearing throat...for years. Doc told me it was just a habit. I KNOW it's not. I hate when docs think they can tell u how u feel even when u say different. Ok, ok...back on subject. About 4 or 5 years ago I had a mass come up on my thyroid. They said it was just fluid filled and not to worry. It was 3.25 cm. About a year and a half ago, I got the yearly ultrasound and everything was still fine. Right after that my periods started coming every 3 weeks for the entire year. Went for a ct scan back in Dec of last year for a salivary gland that was stopped up. The mass on thyroid was right at 6 cm and I had it removed and part of thyroid. It was cancerous but they didn't think it had spread. Keeping an eye on that. My ears started to ring 100 times worse this past year also. Some nights I'd totally freak bc it would make my face feel numb and major pressure on ears. The ringing would be louder off and on but always there. I'm still fighting that right now. My vision will also change. My neck and shoulders hurt all the time. Well, majority of the time. I was having major headaches the past year and a half. Now, let me tell u all that I've tried and some things I've discovered. I hope and pray that maybe some of this can help u all bc I KNOW the frustrations and just wanting to be normal again. I've been dealing with everyth for the past 15 years almost. Sigh. And I've also had the short term memory and can't concentrate or focus. Can't remember things I was in the middle of saying. It's awful!
Magnesium. I think this helped me the most. At the time I was trying to fig out my partial seizures. I still think it has to do with hormones but docs say.....nah. Roll eyes. I take the powdered magnesium by Kirkland. I buy it off Amazon. I take about a spoonful a night. Of ur stool starts to get a little too soft then just cut back a tad. Won't hurt regardless. Take zinc also. It goes together. Research the deficiency symptoms for magnesium.
Also B12 and B6. Research those.
But D.....
And iron.....ive had such heavy periods for years that I started taking iron and it's helped with how tired I am around that time. I never took before bc I always had too much iron.
I've tried acupuncture also.
I go to the chiropractor once a month.
And for the past 6 weeks I've been going to physical therapy for my neck and shoulders. There's so many nerves and muscles in the neck. The nerves can become compressed by the muscles and after years u can have bad problems. So....im trying that. I can say that my headaches aren't has frequent. I have to make sure to do the exercises they give u. I also think that a lot of people have too much estrogen. Lots of foods have it in there and it can build up. My ears had been doing better....actually forgot for like a day or two about the ringing. I started yesterday and wham!.....ringing loud, ear pressure....which had gotten better, dizzy and light headed. Sigh. I believe it has to do with hormones.......all if it! Menopause, I know, can cause a lot of this so makes since if ur hormones are wacky then that would cause it too. I know when I ears ring loud it makes me dizzy.
And something one of u said about having certain feelings and then it went in to a panic attack ..... have ur Neuro do an REG to see ur brain and any firing off. U might have slight partials. They can cause all kinds of feels. Depending on where it's firing off from. I'm sorry I took up so much space but I fig maybe something would help. Just research the things I said and don't just trust docs to say ur levels of this or that are within normal range. Normal range might not be normal for u. U really can't overdose on magnesium. Iron u can be careful.
Oh yeah....my ears are super sensitive ago like when I was little.
I also think I have ETD bc of things with my ears. But I take flonase every day. Idk. If any of u have any other suggestions then I'd love to hear. Hang in there....u all are not alone and we will fig it out.
Hi all, I'd love some advice too! I am suffering from pressure at the front of my head and blocked ears. My balance is not great because of my ear and I had an ear infection a few weeks ago. Docs gave me Amoxicillin to clear it. I went back to docs and they said it was cleared, but the symptoms wont go away for a few weeks. To this day, my left ear is still blocked, I get really dizzy, I've pressure at the front of my head. I've tried, antisickness tablets, sinus tablets, painkillers, anything at all that could help. Can someone please give me some advice or what I could get over the counter? I'm UK, northern Ireland specific. Would appreciate it!!!
did u ever find a solution for this ? im struggling with this for 2 years also. Strange presssure in ears abd head. vision fewling strange. fatigued and foggy.
hi did u ever find solution ?
what is m.e disease?
did u ever find out what you were dealing with ?
a friend of mine was suffering from same problem untill she got it figured out to vertebrae stenosis (clogged nerve/artery to brain) diagnosis was found by neurologist who performed 2 mris to figure it out.
Auch zusammen mit ETD schauen Sie sich globus an. Das ist das, was das ständige Räuspern verursacht. Geht Hand in Hand mit Säureaufstoßen...vielen Dank für all Ihre guten Informationen..bestimmte Lebensmittel lösen meinen T schlimmer aus...führen Sie ein Tagebuch über die Lebensmittel, die Sie essen, wenn Sie einen verschlimmerten Anfall bekommen, vergleichen Sie es...
Forschung ETD und Online-Übungen helfen enorm
Hi. Revisiting this thread because I never did find a solution. Had a few months of being relatively well but back to feeling horrible. Ear pressure won't go away and still over tired. Now have an annoying chest pain that is also undiagnosed. Ent suggested regular nasal spray to help with eustachian tubes do started on that again. Blood pressure now under control with daily medication but underlying issue certainly still with me. Hoping a change of location for the summer may help. Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.
Im not sure if this is of much help but I too have had similar issues. In December of 2016 i got the flu for the first time in my life. The sickest I've ever been in my life. I'm a 42 year old male at the time. After about a month I thought I pretty much recovered but then I got these eye infections that swelled my eyes shut. This cleared after about a month as well. Shortly after that I had problems with my heart and heart palpitations for about a month then strange nervous system issues with tingling in my hands and eye problems. Shortly after that I had severe sleeping problems. I would wake up thinking I couldn't breathe. Then the constant head pressure started and the fatigue, the fatigue. The fatigue is the worst.
I never knew what fatigue meant until I experienced this general inability to move my body like I want too. I would have bursts of "normal" for a couple days, then many days of feeling unwell. Constant head pressure, fatigue, memory and cognitive issues as well as balance problems. There were periods of days where I would tell my doctor that I just feel like i'm about to pass out all the time. It's horrible. Overall, over the past 18 months I have become better to a degree with constant bouts though of head pressure, a few days of light vertigo recently, and body aches and fatigue. It's so hard to describe the vast variety of symptoms over the last 18 months as sometimes you feel ok, then you have something new start happening to your body or your head.
The things that are pretty consistent are the cycles of feeling better, then feeling worse, which is tough on me mentally. It is definitely attributed to how much activity I do both mental and physical. It seems if I put in a day of working around the house I'll pay for it with 3 days of feeling like I have the flu.
The only sense of comfort I have found is to go on forums like this and twitter and follow and share on the #ME and #MECFS and #pwnme hashtags there, try and get educated on this disease and to my surprise see just how common it seems to be these days. It's frustrating and I feel for anyone that is going through the same, whether it's the more extreme version of what we're dealing with or even a less severe. That's the other issue on this disease as it has grades of severity as well.
Just try and eat better, keep your mind clear and anxiety down if possible, and get as much facts and experiences of those that also are suffering in the hopes of figuring out ways to cope and maybe even get better.
Hi dear
Hope you are feeling better. I am suffering the same last 2 years..was wondering did u get better...did you find the cause of the problem?..my docs are saying it is all in the head..and it depression pls let me know if you know anything
Hi can you pls share what you have sent to Marcusent about his case pressured ears and fatigue
Maybe it would be good to do x ray of neck?
I started to have similar problem.Started with ear infection , I got tinnitus also.
4 days ago I lost balance and felt like vomiting and had seveiere headache.
The ENT doctor said that it has nothing to do with ears but my tinnitus is worst now.I will be going to GP now and wonder what he will say.
Thanks joanna for your response. I dont have ear ringing. But yes i have neck problem and did mri and doc said it is fine just avoid wrong postures while reading my laptop. I also had infection started two years back. So i still have pressure or glued ear it os by far better than before..but my doc said it is prob due to my acid reflux which i do have. I am in herbal medication now like DLPA to minimize anxiety and stress...
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. My Primary Care Physician referred me to a Neurologist after I mentioned balance problems/labyrinthitis. Went to Neurologist two MRIs later was referred to a Neurosurgeon who then referred me to an Otolaryngologist (basically an ENT Specialist). It was amazing - he reviewed my MRIs, asked a few questions, looked in my ear with a microscope and was able to diagnosis me instantly. I did have to have another MRI as well as CT Scan and audiogram to help determine how big and how invasive it had become. That was on April 10th this year. I had surgery on May 1st. I have a second surgery scheduled for June 21st as it was worse than he expected and needs a neurosurgeon on hand to help remove the rest of it. BTW He thinks I was born with it and I am 50 years old. He thinks other should have seen it at several different points over the last 5 years or so.
Lorraine,
Can you tell me about your migraine without pain. I was told I had that, but it just seems so weird to me
