Hi!
welcome to HCM!
Lightheadedness however is a common complaint in people having low blood pressure. When the blood pressure is too low, not enough oxygen-rich blood is being delivered to the brain, and its function can be affected.
Low blood pressure may be the result of an underlying illness or disease, or it may be a normal physiologic condition. Some common reasons for low blood pressure include Anemia and dehydration.Labrynthitis can also cause fullness in ears and lightheadedness but your doctor has already examined you and said there is no ear infection.get your blood pressure and hemoglobin checked.
Hope this helps you!Take care!
