I have got something similar at the moment which started a couple of weeks ago and the doctor put me on Cinnarizine to help the dizziness and loss of balance. He said he thought it was an inner ear infection and it sounds as though you might have something similar. At the moment I am doing saline rinses and inhaling to try and get rid of the blockage, so it might be worth giving it a go. Do hope you feel better soon.
