Im worried that when I do stop all the way that this dizziness will get worse I drive a school bus and cant drive like this do oyu know if this is normal or should I be worried about it and see a specialist ?Could something have been damaged when the cleaning happened
Hi, From history it seems that you might be having some middle ear infection giving this dizziness spell. As you are driving a bus it is not advisable to drive. Consult ENT specialist and get examined. After proper diagnosis plan of treatment can be decided. Meanwhile do not go for driving. Ok and take care.
