Brief Answer:
Rule out Meniere's Disease

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

1. A Pure Tone Audiogram (PTA) should be done to rule out early Meniere's Disease.

2. Tinnitus, Vertigo, Fluctuating hearing loss and fullness in the ears are the hallmarks of this condition.

3. Upload your PTA for further investigation and treatment options.

4. Check if clenching your teeth alters the tinnitus (buzzing sound) in the ear.

5. Describe your vertigo (spinning) in detail. General conditions such as blood pressure fluctuations, changes in blood sugar levels, anemia, dehydration, heart rhythm disturbance, any current medication (drug induced), allergy and gastritis can lead to dizziness.

I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any more questions I will be available to answer them.

Regards.
