I don't know why I'm so nervous and soft as if I'm just struggling to seek help. I feel scared and nervous all the time. And sometimes I feel like the mind wants to struggle instead of seeking help. But like I don't know what to do. I'm just scared of doing everything.

I went to the dentist this week because my jaw was feeling tight ever since I got an ear infection and enthusias tube blocked. The thing was I was experiencing left side dizziness unsteady balance and brain fog sythoms for a month so the doctor said it's earwax impacted so they tried cleaning but my ear ended up hurting so I went to ent doctor, I was told due to heavy syringe cleaning there is redness and infection and the enthusias tube is clogged so I was given steroids and antibiotics and nasal spray afrin which I didn't use because of the side effects it has. So I completed the steroids and antibiotics. I noticed when I tried eating and chewing on left side I would just feel more dizzy and my has overall feels tight so I also went to the dentist and they said I have 4 wisdom teeth that's needs to be removed however the lower left wisdom tooth is sideways which I guess is causing pressure . But damn this brain fog and weird sythoms and sensations I keep experience is driving me crazy.

I turned 30 this year and it's just not been a good year so far. I went to the ER twice and even recently keep going back and forth to clinic and seeing the specialist but I just don't seem to get any relief and solutions. I'm sick of being calm positive and hopeful because ultimately I have no other choice but to be calm and hopeful however days and weeks have gone by but I just don't seem to see any light of hope. And I feel internally my life is becoming small. People keep saying your overthinking too much and holding onto things and you keel doubting alot as if your mind is just scanning for problems instead of solutions.
Every single day I'm praying hoping and wishing I get better and so I can live my life normally again. It's like I realized when health isn't on your side nothing externally brings joy. All this time I thought materialistic things would feel the void but I just don't want anything else besides good health and good mind. I'm sick of living in this rut. I'm truly overwhelmed from inside
I've been dealing with health problems for over a month now and saw few doctors here and there with no insurance and barley any income for treatment. I keep praying hoping and wishing I'll get better and I'm still living in this hope because I have no other choice but to do so. I just want to get back to normal and live my life. But health anxiety is just taking away my life joy.
I just been suffering over a month going to this and that doctor but I don't feel like I'm getting the help and relief I wish for. It's like when you try to explain what you are feeling and what you are going through it makes me feel like they don't even care nor listen to the concern. And like everyone says just open up to a healthcare profession because they are there to help.
Those who got diagnosed with gallstones, what changes did you make in life and diet wise that started improving your symptoms. I mean eventually we learn and recognize what triggers our body
​
Freaking health problems has taken over my life to a point I feel like my life joy has been taken away. I'm not able to prioritize and feel the urgency of my life goals and this feeling of awareness and clarity. I just don't feel conscious like you know in the moment. I don't feel like sharp and fast as before as if my mind is lagging. I feel so bad that anxiety is mixing with it because my mind feels glued to the problem and I'm just sick of it. I don't know how to fight and overcome it.
I just been carrying a lot of stress over the course of few months and health anxiety is making it worse. But I guess I've been carrying stress and lack of self care lead to grey hair maybe. I heard simple things like exercising, good diet, drinking more water and head massaging to circulate blood helps but there is also genetic factor, supplement defienecy and stress also causes this problems.
I couldn't get an appointment with ent doctor specialist and I just saw them and tommrow have a flight to catch but I was advised not to fly because of severe ear infection and enthusias tube blocked. I tried calling the clinic many many times but they were closed for the day and Fridays also closed so I'm not sure how will I get a hold of the doctor or clinic staff to get a letter stating this medical situation. I also feel worried about getting my refund. I don't know how to handle this urgent situation. How do I even explain and how will they help me??
​
I finally went to an ENT doctor and explained how I was experiencing dizziness on left side and shoulder neck tightness. I explained how the regular doctor said just use debrox because the earwax was impacted and I used that but the urgent care clinic damaged my ear because of the heavy syringe cleaning. And so I ended up going to the ent and they removed the leftover earwax that was still there and they used like a camera to check my throat, nose and ears. And said look on your left ear there is redness which is ear infection and your enthusiastic tube is clogged. And your right ear looks good. There is light shining but on your left it's not. The doctor ended up saying due to heavy syringe cleaning it has caused an infection and blockage on the middle ear. Then he prescribed me steroids for 1 week and said use afrin to open up the enthusiaic tube and practice pinching the nose and swallowing this helps. But he said it's normal to hear whistling noise

Why is the mind so stubborn or fixated on problems that it feels like it has become a center point. Like all you wish and hope is it gets resolved and no amount of distractions brings peace.
Hey everyone, I’ve been dealing with a miserable chain reaction on my left side for a month now. My left jaw feels completely locked up and restricted when I try to open it, which has forced me to subconsciously chew entirely on my right side. Along with this, my left neck and shoulder get incredibly tight. The worst part is my left ear—it feels completely blocked, muffled, and has a "squishy" fluid feeling when I pull my earlobe in the morning. I also get a sharp ache in the ear whenever I yawn or burp, and I’m dealing with terrible dizziness that gets worse when I look to the left.
I already saw a doctor who checked my ear and confirmed my eardrum looks perfectly healthy and fine. They suspect my Eustachian tube is just clamped shut, trapping natural fluid behind it. I’m starting to wonder if this entire muscle spasm is being triggered by a back wisdom tooth trying to push through or severe TMJ issues. Has anyone else experienced a locked jaw and blocked Eustachian tube completely throwing off their hearing and balance? Did getting a back tooth evaluated or doing physical therapy finally drain the fluid and stop the dizziness?

I have no clue still have did I end up getting etd. I mean a month of suffering like I was dealing with left side dizziness unsteady balance and brain fog sythoms and neck shoulder tightness. The primary doctor said it's earwax impacted that is causing it. So they tried cleaning it but it was too stubborn so they send me home with debrox and muscle spasm relaxer. And I used it but I was just experiencing more dizziness the more I looked on left side and the clinic was closed so I ended up going to urgent care clinic. They tried to flush my ears and right ear cleaned but left ear gave so much pain to a point I was screaming and panicking. And so they thought I have ear infection so they stopped. Then for 3 days I had water coming out from that ear and just feeling pain. But they had given me amoxicillin. Today I went to the regular primary doctor and I explained everything. But they said after checking the ears that your ear drum is fine. Your wax is honey wax texture. And you don't have any infection. I even asked for ent doctor referral but they said no no, you don't need it. They ended up saying the enthusiastic tube is clogged that's why you hear muddled hearing and you feel like the water is trapped inside. And once the equalizing pressure is done then you'll stop feeling dizziness and the pain will go away.
I'm still confused as hell like what the heck happened. None of my problems are solved and I'm left so frustrated and overwhelmed.

About two weeks I went to a local clinic because I was experiencing left side dizziness unsteady balance and brain fog, they checked my ears and found out I had severe earwax impacted so they tried to clean but since it was stubborn wax they couldn't clean it much so they send me home with some debrox and muscle spasm relaxer because I was experiencing left side neck and shoulder tightness. And they wanted to see me after 2 weeks to clean the ears and see the ears
But I was just experiencing more dizziness so I ended up going to urgent care clinic since the regular clinic was closed on weekends.
I told them everything, but when they tried to clean my ears OMG I was feeling so much pain in my left ear that I was screaming and panicked. I even had runny nose and watery eyes. They stopped so they cleaned my right ear which didn't give much trouble. But I was send home with antibiotics because they think I have an infection. And all night til now I'm just experiencing water coming out from that ear and my ear is still clogged. My dizziness is still there. I'm so frustrated and overwhelmed. I feel like crying. Idk if that ear has narrow ear canal or if there is an infection.

How do you understand where your dizziness is coming from. So for me, I've been experiencing on left side like this sensation of being on a boat. It's like your moving side to side or something. I'm not experiencing like the spinning of room. But like I noticed the more I turn my neck towards the left, it feels worse. I also seem to be experiencing neck and shoulder tightness or stiffness then this weird muscle spasm in the upper shoulder where the spine is mostly this happens when I hunch my back when using the phone. Sometimes I experience mild numbness in my left hand too but if I move around then it goes away.
