What Causes Dizziness And Pressure In The Head?
I am having a lot of dizziness, nausea, and weak in the last two weeks. Sometimes worst than other, I can hardly stand up. My head feels full or stopped up. I can hardly drive or ride in a car because I feel like I am on a rollercoaster . I become real sick on the stomach from not eating anything at all. Now all of a sudden I have started having diarrhea. I been told I might have middle ear infection with off balance vertigo

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your query, you have dizziness and pressure in the head.
Well, there can be many reasons for symptoms (you mentioned in your query) like middle ear infection, labyrinthitis, anxiety disorder, migraine, diabetes-type 2, sinusitis and sometimes cardiac problem can also give such signs.
I would suggest you to consult an ENT specialist to rule out ear problem and sinusitis. Doctor will examine ear with otoscope and order CT scan for sinusitis.
Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like genatmicin or amoxicillin, decongestant. Doctor may also refer you to cardiologist for cardiac problem or neurologist for neurological problem.
For now, drink green tea with ginger thrice a day and avoid bending forward.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
