Thanks Emma, although it's definitely not that as i had only one brief episode of feeling dizzy when my ears first blocked up. I am aware of BPPV as my partner's mother had it and had to undertake those exercises.
Anyway, i spoke too soon, the antibiotics did not work for the ear. Sods law as soon as i posted on here, they blocked up again

I have now bought the Otovent system that Crispy recommended. First time using, my ears popped for a while but then blocked again. However, you have to use it for a week or so and then maintenance. Currently, it's only blocking for a few minutes a day so a massive improvement - makes a huge difference. From the reviews i've read of people using this, they have been on a similar journey as me with GPs; antibiotics, steroid nasal sprays etc - nothing works.
I'm staying positive that this might do the trick. No point going back to the doctors if it doesn't so i guess next step would be to make an appt with an ENT consultant.
Thanks everyone, Sam
