Well, at least we ruled something out.

I went to the ENT doctor today. After talking to him and doing all kinds of funky little tests he came to the conclusion that there is nothing he can do for me since he is 99% sure it is NOT inner ear related. He does however think it is heart related. He said he would talk to my PCP and see what he thinks about me seeing a cardiologist and possibly wearing a heart monitor for a few days. I am going to contact my neurologist since I realized today that I started all these dizzy spells AFTER I passed out the second time and hit my head.

ruling something out is a good thing Kathy. you may not know the true cause yet but at least you know one more thing that isn't the cause. a step in the right direction. also sounds like there is a plan forming with the heart monitor. good luck. i hope you get a speedy resolution to the problem.

LOL I keep telling myself at least something is ruled out so we know what isn't causing it. Still frustrating that nothing was positive since I got my hopes up.

Kathy, I am glad they are starting to rule things out and have you on a path to find out what is going on. I hope you find more out soon!

Aren't those some of the strangest tests LOL. Sorry they didn't have an answer for you, but sounds like they took you very seriously and referred you on to the next step. Heart monitor sounds like a viable plan.

I was wondering what the point was. Then he told me and I got it. Still strange. He thought heart monitor since my BP goes up and down.
