Hello Connie!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
Your symptoms could be related to chronic inflammation, related to the inner ear infection. Temporal arteritis can not be excluded either.
For this reason, I would recommend performing inflammation tests (PCR, ESR, etc).
Oral steroids may be needed.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Wishing good health,
Dr. Iliri
