What Causes A Weird Sound In The Ear When Lying On The Abdomen?

I experience a swooshing soud (fan like swoosh) in my ear when I lay on my stomach and raise my head to read a book or write. I was always able to do this as a child but no longer. Sometimes this happens when I get up too quickly as well, and get dizzy and feel pressure over my eyes. No one seems to know what I am talking about.

Hi.
Thanks for a very proper history.This is suggestive of a problem with the arteries supplying the brain and its network. This may possibly in the neck region.
The best way to get a diagnosis is by MRI Angiography or CT Angiography of he neck for arteries and of the brain and the ear apparatus too. This may Detect wither the constriction or aneurysm or so.
The treatment will depend upon the diagnosis
