The base of it apparently has to with the ear. It seems to come down to a condition known as Menieres (named after the French doctor that first discovered it). But it takes a lot to get to that Dx - basically after tests have not found anything else that could produce those symptoms, that is what you end up with.
Thanks, that is interesting. I suspect my problem is psychological, but I seem to be able to hear and smell things that most people can't. Sometimes I think I could work at the airport sniffing the luggage for bombs.

I think for me it might be related to feelings of being dragged-down by things I can't control?
