Labrinthyitis

I had Labyrinthitus about 10 years ago. It was in both ears and I was unwell for 3 weeks and couldn't work. I had three bad attacks with the room spinning and then it settled down to general giddiness. I still get giddy with some head colds. A weird symptom of Labyrinthitus is that the ground seems to be moving under your feet and objects are moving when they aren't.

I dread having it again now that I'm a widow and would have to cope alone. I think I would have to go into hospital. Luckily a second severe attack is unlikely according to GP.

The severity of Labyrinthitus can vary from 48 hours to weeks and I think it may be stress related because mine came after my mum was admitted to a Nursing Home with acute dementia and I was exhausted.

Thank you for your response Daisychain.
After no joy from the GP,my daughter visited a chiropractor who felt that the problem was labyrinthitis.She then demanded referrals for the scan and ENT.
It all seems to fit into place.
