Just an update. Formal diagnosis by GP is sinusitis, which is written on my doctors notes. Didn't think bouts of this would last beyond three weeks though. Asked for referral to top ENT, who I see next week, just to find out what is going on.
Still have feeling of pressure deep in the spaces behind the nose. This is accompanied from time to time by the sensation of a blocked eustachian tube (fullness) in the left ear and mild tinnitus. Swallowing appears to give some relief. Have been given stronger antibiotics, but these dont seem to have touched any of the symptoms. With regard to balance-(Blood pressure is fine- and checked by 24 hour monitor to rule that out) still feel woozy and spaced out a lot of the time- a feeling that is oddly worse in large spaces?? And sometimes feel a little off balance when moving head suddenly- although this is infrequent now. I am soon going to be in the time frame where I have to report the situation. Work have been fine and understanding. The GP mentioned that all these symptons go hand in hand with sinus infections, but also said that there could be a possible inner ear infection. The thing is I don't feel ill- but I just don't
feel right. Have even forced the wife to do most of the driving and certainly wouldn't fly like it. Anyone have any further thoughts?
