I’ve still got w cough. Think it’s possibly a new one though.
Slight headache. Slight fever. Achey. But OMG every time I move my head and eyes j get such a strange sensation. Like off balance for few moments. This eye thing been going on for a week or two but today seem to have peaked.

Out of hours isn’t answering. I’ll call Gp tomorrow. But I have work too. Do you think it’s labrybthitis or similar.

I had EXACTLY the same thing last week. Cough had gone on for about 2 weeks and then as it started to get better, I start getting these horrible dizzy/sick spells which freaked me out so much. It cleared up in a few days and I put it down to some kind of residual inner ear infection after the cold/flu I was getting over but yeesht, it was horrible.

Viral labyrinthitis

Agree it's viral labyrinthitis. It's like being drunk without the fun. Really weird

It's horrible isn't it? It's an absolute epidemic!

Labyrinthitis? This can seriously affect your balance.

Oh very funny Hmm

If it doesn't resolve in a week or so speak to your GP. I have Ménière's disease which was misdiagnosed as labyrinthitis for almost a year. It is more likely to be labyrinthitis though, especially after a virus.
