Hi! My anxiety has got worse again over the last month. I am currently sufferinf from dizzyness and an off balance feeling. I went to the doctors on monday and was told that there was an infection by my ear drum so was given nasal spray for it. I also had my meds upped from 80mg propanolol to 120mg due to my increased anxiety. I also expressed concerns of a brain tumour due to the dizziness which the doctor did her best to reassure me that I haven't got a brain tumour. I then requested to have a ct scan to put my mind at rest and she refused. I then went back on thursday and saw another doctor who told me I could possibly have an inner ear infection and he gave me betahistamine. I am really scared at the moment of this off balance feeling and think there might be more of a serious problem with my ears or a brain tumour. My anxiety has really increased and I'm at the end of my tether as think I'm going to pass out. Other symptoms I'm getting is head/ear pressure, indigestion, tremors in hands. This is causing me problems and taking over my life. The doctor has reffered me to mental health services who I'm seeing on 26th june. Everyone is constantly reassuring me that this isn't serious but I'm not convinced.
