Vertigo and dizziness 4 days after flying

[Charlylau2412]

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone can help me, 4 days after flying and I’m extremely dizzy and awful nausea what hasn’t got better. I’m struggling to drive, work, even walk! We flew back in the storm so it was a very rough flight, I’ve never had problems with my ears before or any vertigo! I’m terrified that permanent damage is done (I have health anxiety which doesn’t make it any better) I am in at the doctors tomorrow. Just wanting to know I’m not alone and that anyone recovered from this! Thank you in advance ladies, I literally never want to go away again!! this is truly terrifying! If anyone else suffers what do you take that helps?

The only time I've had dizziness after flying was my one and only flight from a different time zone.
It felt like the same symptoms that I get when I've been on a boat. It lasted over a week but I did get back to normal.

Thank you so much for your reply, this gives me some comfort, glad it got back to normal for you, can I ask what your symptoms were

@Charlylau2412 I just felt dizzy, slightly nauseous and felt like the floor was rocking.

I came back from a boat trip on the Norfolk Broads last Saturday and the last few days we were buffeted about by Storm Amy. I have been swaying about all over the place since. I have such a rubbish GP I am avoiding going and will wait it out.
