Unbalanced feeling/falling and floating sensation

I’m 26 female and recently started to feel like Im floating/falling/light-headed. I went to see a Dr to check on anemia, ear infection or thyroid problem and all test came back normal. He gave me motion sickness tablet but it doesn’t help. I’m wondering which Dr should I see for this kind of problem? I’m thinking of making an appointment with an ENT Dr. Please advice.

Hi and thank you for asking us

Through the question and statement you gave on the above section, i completely understand your concern over this matter. For your information, this problem needs to be check and examined in further detail. It might due to problems such as:

  • BPPV (bening paroxysmal positional vertigo)
  • Meniere’s disease
  • Acoustic neuroma

Therefore I suggest you to visit a ENT specialist as they can explore further into your current complaints.

You can easily get ear, nose & throat problems, but don’t let it get to you.

If you have any more enquiries, you can click on the link (DoctorOnCall) and speak to our doctors in private and get the consultation you need on the phone. Thank you.

Discuss your symptoms with an ear, nose and throat(ENT) specialist for their expert advice.
