Many years I have experienced this and it is frightening and annoying. Go to an Ear Nose and Throat spec. My problem is inner ear and once you have been diagnosed properly and are on the right medication, you will feel better. The inner ear can cause lots of problems.

Are you talking about vertigo? If so, the vertigo will go away on it's own. As for the surgery that they do involves the ear canal. It involves chemicals in the ear canal, and the surgery gets rid of them, because they cause problems with your body's perception of it's surroudnings. You can read about it by checking out the link in the sources.
It's success rate isn't as good as other surgeries, but it should be relatively safe. I wouldn't recommend the surgery unless you get your family physician or a neurologist's (or otolaryntologist, an Ears-Nose-and-throat) opinion first.

It's called vertigo. It is usually an inner ear problem. There are small patches you can get to wear behind your ears to help. People who get sea sick use them on cruise ships. Follow the directions on the package and you should get some relief and it should go away on its own.

If you are having periods, then you are not pregnant. It sounds like you are just gaining weight. Maybe you've been eating unhealthy foods, eating too much sugar, or drinking too much caffeine. A little weight gain does not mean that you are pregnant. If you are sexually active and do not want to get pregnant, I recommend that you practice safe sex. If you want to lose the weight you've gained, try exercising like walking, swimming, or biking.

I am so sorry, vertigo is miserable. I had it for a couple of years. Took a medicine called antivert. Couldn't have stood it without it. See an ENT (ear, nose, throat doc)

are you sure the doctor didn't say vertigo? it'sjust a problem in your inner ear and you vestibular system, which is also in your ears, it's the things that helps you keep your balance and stuff...don't worry bout it...it's not too serious...your body will work it out by itself...it's good at stuff like that...

My chiropractor can get mine to go away - immediately. He works on my skull and the bones inside my mouth. Try it.
