I'm sorry to hear that you are going through all of this. Unfortunately, ear problems can be challenging to diagnose with blood test or imaging and the provider has to rely on the patients symptoms. I've experienced all of the above, although from a different injury. You're not imagining any of the symptoms and don't let anyone make you feel like you are. Continue to advocate for yourself if things are not normal for you. Also, check out cochlear hypdrops NOT Menieres. A lot of the symptoms are similar. I personally experienced this for a short time. You could also try elevating yourself when you sleep at night to reduce GERD. Remain elevated for at least 2 hours after a meal. Read up on night guards, but be cautious as they can sometimes make TMJ worse. Try eating cleaner and reducing sodium and caffeine which can play a part in the fluid levels in our ears. Good luck. I pray you get some relief.

@tmragain well, they actually did some testing to that.... cochlear or endolymphatic hydrops, which came out negative as well... I thought it was at the beginning, but after the exams, well maybe I have to keep searching
