Lower Abdominal Pain, Dizziness, Fatigue, Lightheadedness, Ringing In Ears, Enlarged Prostate, Bulging Vein. Done CT Scan. Explain

Over the last 2 months I've been dizzy and had fatigue upon waking up and throughout the day. Dizzy meaning lightheaded. No spinning. My ears are also ringing. My forehead feels warm as well as each ear when I lay with my ear on the pillow. It has gone away for a week before but came back. No fever.
It's the same while standing or sitting.
Today it subsided but after I went out and came back and ate it came back full force.
I was taking flomax for an apparent enlarged prostate as I did have frequent and short urination and burning lower abdomen.
The dizziness started 2 months in taking it and I stopped it after that. It's been 2 months since I stopped.
Only other thing different is I've had a bulging vein in left forehead that causes pressure there. That is almost constant. Occasional minor headache.
I've been to the doctor several times for EKG and even ctscan and blood tests all negative.
Thanks.

Hi, tamsulosine has side effects concerned with the mucosa of the nose and sinuses, so can cause symptoms of the sinusitis. any how you have stopped.
The vein, and occassional head aches will be remnant of the sinusitis. or may not be.It may also be due to anxiety.
I to my patients with such symptoms prescribe, cefixime, decongestants, analgesics, and antihistamine. Gargling with luke warm salt water can give you good relief.Thank you.
