Unfortunately, fluid in your ears can cause all of the symptoms you mentioned. The dizziness factor stems from an unbalance in your equilibrium from having fluid in one ear. I have had this problem for years. My doctor always recommends a decongestant, such as the safe Sudafed they now make, to relieve the congestion in the ears. You can also ask your doctor or pharmacist about Mucinex----I know it's good for chest congestion, but I am unsure about congestion in the ear. You can also buy ear drops over the counter that will relieve some of the pain. I believe they are called Similasan. Best of luck and hope you are feeling better soon!
