hi there and welcome..did you have an inner ear infection during your flu bout...not sure about tamiflu side affects bur sounds like inner ear infection could be the cause..? dizziness and sudden movement causing off balance is usually a sign and nausea.it may not have been present during the flu but left as side effect from it..just a thought watch for other replies..

Last year I had a similar thing happen to me. At first the dizziness would only be during certain times and go away after a few hours or so. This went on over several months until one day I couldnt get out of bed at all the dizziness was so bad. I couldnt drive or function at all it was pure hell. I ended up going to an ent for several weeks for testing, and later to the national dizzy and balance center where they told me after more tests that I had permanent damage to my inner ear due to a virus. I had to go through 8 weeks of physical therapy and it took a long time to improve. I still have boughts from time to time or if my head is in a certain position. You may have BPV or could be something more serious like what I had or it could be menieres disease. since you just went through the flu the virus may have impacted your inner ear. Either way dizzy is no fun and pretty scary. If it is just BPV they can do adjustments to your head which helps. I recommend a good ENT and if you dont get what you need call a physical therapy office. I would see how things go and if it improves but if not get checked out soon you definately don't want it to get worse.

Well, I haven't been to the doctor but whatever it is its started to fade slowly but surly. I don't get as dizzy when I get up or move around, and when putting pressure on the back of my head I start to get dizzy but then it fades away. Hopefully within a week I'll be all better.

I am having symtoms of dizziness and am wondering if it could be caused by sucralose, Splenda. I have been drinking alot of Fuze and stopped since I now have these symptoms. Can anybody relate?
