i don't think they are a reaction, as i clearly recall blowing my nose too hard the day before and feeling my ear "pop."

i've been told by several doctors that i have very narrow eustachian tubes.

i just included my emotional state as further information on my health.

my dizziness is not constant but the feeling of lightheadedness is. not coincident with menses, no vomiting or anxiety (other than my normal life stress), dizziness is relieved by remaining completely motionless, i am unable to say at present whether it occurs with just head motion or whole body motion, i'll keep an eye on it.

are you a physician? either way, thank you for your concern.
