For the past two weeks I've been experiencing dizziness/vertigo - especially after driving, or when moving around the kitchen too quickly. It's been almost continuous, minus two or three good days this past week. However, when I'm having a bad day with the dizziness, I also have a frequent urge to urinate, and....I'M SNEEZING A LOT!

To me, I've come to the conclusion (after Dr. Google) that I have a brain stem tumor. I'm very scared, but doing my best to surrender my health and my life to God...but it's hard with 3 kiddos and a loving husband....ya know?

I was examined by an ENT, who wasn't worried and scheduled me for a balance test at the end of the month.
I mean...what else could these symptoms be?

Anxiety. Fluid in the you inner ear from sinus drainage or allergies. Especially with your sneezing. I'm betting you have some fluid build up

When the ENT checked last Thursday, there was no fluid in either ear.

I've also been experiencing similar symptoms. Is there any way I can check for inner ear issues myself?

No way of truly knowing without a doctor's expertise/medical imaging.

Hi,
I have suffered with dizzy spells on and off for years and I'm still here so I take that as a good sign.
However they have been worse the last couple of weeks, I have tried to be rational and tell myself it's down to the weather, I have been through the B.T worries countless times and still worry about it even though I think by now my symptoms would be a lot more severe. I don't get headaches or numbness it's literally just the dizziness but it's a horrible scary sensation and always makes me panic. Everyday I wake up worrying about it and I know that worry definately makes it worse. Hope it eases for you soon.

This isn't my first bout with dizziness either...however, I've never experienced it like this, or for this long of a duration. I also haven't experienced it with other neurological symptoms...such as the frequent urge to urinate and the frequent sneezing.
