Well the good news is it isn't diabetes although we kind of new that to begin with.
I guess Monday I started getting a ringing in my ear along with a pressure headache.
I'm feeling better each of the last few days. Today was pretty good despite the symptoms lasting all day - it was pretty mild though.
With the ringing in my ear, I would be very confident we're talking about an inner ear issue (which clears up most of the time in 1-6 weeks from what I'm reading). I've been refered to an ENT doctor (ear, nose, throat) but as long as I keep improving I probably won't make the appointment with him.

I guess there isn't much sense in worrying about you Red. Not if you won't take care of yourself. Don't you have health insurance at that bank?

Hows the Blood Pressure Red? I used to have a temperment simular to yours (Mellowed with age and it's one of the 9 pills I take each day). And Blood Pressure can be an issue and contribute to the symptoms you describe.

Still having dizzy headaches with ear ringing all day. I'm going to try to get into a specialist next thurs. My blood pressure was fine at the doctor and always has been. The blood tests ended up being ok with the exception of a high number of liver enzymes. The doctor's office called me today to see if I went back for additional bloodwork. My reply was "you're lucky I went once" They think I might have something called Gilbert's disease...which is basically nothing and it's genetic. It shouldn't have much to do with my dizzy headaches. I would still think it's probably inner ear.

Mine were almost off the charts.............

Mine wasn't bad, if it's the same thing. The normal reading could range all the way to 1.2 Mine was 1.3 without fasting I'm not worried about it Last week the doc told me to take this medication, a day or two later the ringing started, well today I find out ringing of the ears is a side effect to that medicine. I'll be off of it for a few days and see if it clears up. So long as I am not on the computer and I make no sudden moves, the dizzy is somewhat contained. I should obvouisly not be dizzy at all though.
