I am really dizzy at times. Last night I was in the kitchen making me a glass of lemonade and thought ok I need to hurry up or I am going to pass out. Well I ended up just dropping my glass and having it shatter all over the tile. We had to scrub the floor with a sponge to get all the lemonade up it was that sticky. Mom was able to get all the shards of glass up this morning. Anyway I don't know what is causing my dizziness I am eating a lot of protein and last night drank 2 regular cokes with vanilla in them. Yesterday I didn't have as much protein as I normally do so that could be it. Not sure about today though. I am sitting here at the computer going stop the world I want to get off LOL.

That sounds scary, jbug. I'm glad you are with your parents. Maybe you should tell your doctor if it keeps up. Might have something to do with your infection?

I just had my one good ear decide to close up this afternoon (too much wax) and am thinking I'm going to be miserable until Tuesday if the ear drops don't help fix it. I'm a little afraid they might cause more trouble than they help and am looking out for dizziness, etc. if the ear gets infected or worse.

A trip to the doctor could be in order. It sounds like an inner ear problem. I have problems with dizziness so much I am on medication for vertigo. I have tmj though which makes my jaw muscle become inflamed and messes up my ear. I would have a doctor check it out to be on the safe side especially if this is something new.

It could be inner ears... it could be diabetes (blood sugar going haywire causes bad dizziness) ... there are a lot of different reasons it could happen.

If it's a semi-constant thing, best get to the doctor.
