Flew to nyc a week ago- since here i've feeling of unsteadiness, dizziness not lightheaded but like i may fall over throughout the day. age 44 female ?

Motion sickness?: Could be just motion sickness which will self-resolve but consider seeing an ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat) doctor to rule out Barotrauma and other possible conditions if symptoms last longer than 1 week.
