Ear pressure, headache, dizzynss, black bubbles in my vision.


Hi, I was looking for some help here, since I don't have much time to check in with my Doc much.

I always had ear troubles as a kid, in the middle ear, but it's been years from that. But two years ago, or a year and a half, not sure, I got a terrible cold and since then my ears always had pressure (like when on a plane but it never releases) -if you know what I mean. It seems I cannot regulate the pressure at all, it gets uncomfortable especially when I yawn, or dive deep in the pool. I don't have much trouble on planes though.

I don't know if it's connected, but I got headaches as well, I can wake up from my sleep with one, or get one all of a sudden. They usually start from the top of my head, to my forehead, Not exactly pressure more like tight muscles -I don't know how to explain it.
And for the past couple of months my vision occassionally blurs like black bubbles and I can't see or hear anything, and I feel my head compressing, it stays for a couple of seconds before it disappears. Its similar to when you stand up quickly from a laying position, but it happens when I'm standing. And recently (couple of weeks) My chest aches, like it's being pulled inwards.Then the feeling disappears.

I eat healthy, My caffeine is to the minimum, I drink a lot of water.

Perhaps my sleep isn't that steady but it's ok.( minimum 3 hours a day at worst!) Never seem to reach 12 hours any more :p But I guess that's normal.

I go to the gym regularly. In my last checkup everything was fine -a couple of months back.

I'm 18.  I don't think there's any inherited diseases. But I'm not sure exactly.

Can anyone help me?

Sounds like it could be ocular migraines.  This affects your vision and causes the headaches and pressure.
