HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Reflux can result in an acid or bitter taste in the mouth and excess salivation.
It may be contributing to the abnormal taste that you are experiencing.

The history of sinus disease would may contribute towards your dizziness and abnormal sensation in your ear.
Sinus disease is most often related to allergies and would be treated with the following : (1) avoiding the allergen if possible

(2) the use of topical nasal sprays such as nasonex, nasocort, rhinocort, flonase

(3) the use of oral antihistamines would also help

There are also medications that can be used specifically to help with dizziness.

I hope this helps
