What Causes Dizziness With Loss Of Hearing?
I am 58 years old. I have experienced a sudden dizzy spell with a loss of some hearing in my right ear.
It disappeared in less than a minute. I have had EKG's and stress tests with no adverse results. The last
I had my sugar checked it was 90 and cholestrol in the 170s. My blood pressure runs 135/80. Heart rate
around 80.

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum
The brief history described by you hints at early stage of Ménière's disease.
Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear that causes spontaneous episodes of vertigo along with fluctuating hearing loss, ringing in the ear (tinnitus), and sometimes a feeling of fullness or pressure in your ear.
Commonly noticed in 4th and 5th decades of life.
Consult an apt ENT specialist for complete evaluation and management.
Regards
