A member asked:
My husband had a sinus infection from a cold. the infection is now gone but he is left with debilitating episodes of dizziness (like being on a rocking boat) accompanied by ear pressure. doctors (including an ent) have no ideas. any suggestions?

I recommend seeing an ENT doctor who specializes in dizziness/vertigo. A general ENT may not have the proper equipment to fully evaluate this. There are definitely some of those physicians in the NY/NJ/CT metropolitan area. Some may also recommend changing your diet to aid in this, but they can advise you on this further. Check with your insurance co for those docs or some of the larger centers.
