If you do find out what is wrong please do post. I am having the same problems. I am off-balance and having ear pain. I just finished a round of antibiotics for what I thought was sinus infection. Didn't help one bit. This dizziness/off-balance feeling is driving me insane. It sometimes leads to panic attacks because I think it's a brain tumor or something horrible. Sorry I wasn't much help but I do sympathize with you. I know how it feels.

Im going for a brain scan so ill keep u posted, I dont know how long I have to wait for it but at least the ball is rolling now..
If u stand up and close your eyes , do u fall over?

Yes. Also, when I try walking down the hall in the dark I have no balance at all and I end up bumping into the walls and almost falling down the stairs. It's horrible! My Dr. Is the type to do the "wait and see" approach so I am beginning to think I have to have a stroke or seizure to have something done about this. I have been to the hospital numerous times about it and they all think it's sinustitis(sp?) and prescribe antibiotics and send me home. I take the antibiotics and it doesn't do a think for me.
Keep posted on the results of your scan...Looks like your getting somewhere...Congrats! ;o)
