will extreme dizzyness after sudden hearing loss go away?

I had the same thing happen, and I was diagnosed with Meniere's. This initially occurred for the first time in my 30's I am now in my 70's. I spoke of it to my son's allergist, and he did testing on me that revealed I cannot have (basically) seed oils or MSG/salt. I believe it is both an allergic reaction and a matter of an increase or balance of fluid in my ear. I also have congenital hearing issues.

Thank you. The MRI dismissed Meniere's in my case.

I had SHL (sudden hearing loss) at age 22 while I was standing having a conversation. Never recovered hearing. I was acutely dizzy for a month afterwards, then, mildly dizzy another month. I took Antivert during that time. This was way back in 1979. So, yes, in my case, the dizziness finally diminished. Good luck to you.

SHL is most common in young adults (20-40 years) from what I have read. Physicians think it is viral in origin.

Thanks for your reply. I am in my late 80's but very active. I guess that I am lucky that it did not appear earlier. i was told it is viral, no medication would help.

Similar to menieres syndrome. Med Prof so far behind this type of dizziness usually results in surgery or ear injections. Demand diazepam low dose will calm the vestibular system. Yu need a full work up to rule out much.

I'm 61 and woke up on August 6 2025 totally deaf in my left ear, When I got out of bed I felt like I was on a small ship in heavy seas, I could hardly walk and did a 'pinball' down the hallway just to get to the bathroom. That degree of vertigo/dizziness lasted almost a week. As on September 7 it's manageable but hasn't gone away.

I've had an MRI, oral steroids and two intratympanic injections (one more next week). None of that has done anything useful whatsoever.

I've been very physically active my whole life and exercise always seems to help, which it did in the case. I am probably doing my own crude form of vestibular therapy. I make a point to be very aware of my posture and hold my shoulders square and chin up and to turn my head all the way left, right and up while walking. That makes me dizzy and takes practice but it seems to be a way of dealing with the dizziness. I got more used to it and I think it's just my brain 'recalculating'. At the gym odd things (like dips) you wouldn't think would cause a problem do and again, I just try to move past it. Intellectually I know this will eventually pass but viscerally I am not dealing with the very well despite the exercise.

Just had my left hip replaced in February and really, REALLY didn't need this.

4 weeks ago yesterday was when I awoke and the hearing in my right ear was gone. Extreme dizzyness lasted 3 1/2 weeks. I am still somewhat dizzy but can drive. I still have a waterfall in my ear and no hearing. I still cannot resume any physical activity.

I keep hearing (faintly) birds chirping in a meadow - it actually helps me sleep sometimes. This morning it sounds a lot like having your car door open with the key in the ignition. Ding Ding Ding. That's getting old fast.

I am not sure of the terminology, but in all you said, have you had the crystals in your ears realign or checked? One of my bosses fell, landing directly on his head. The realignment corrected the problem for him. Hope this helps.
