Hi you all. I am 35years old female from Iceland. Smile

I have constant pain in my left ear and the doctors here in Iceland have not been able to find out what is wrong with me. I have gone to several doctors and to MRI two times. Crying or Very sad

I am putting my story in here in hope that anyone out there could suggest what really might be wrong with me Sad

Idea My story started in January 2008. At first the pain was just in my left ear two times a day, and for 5-10 minutes each time. After two weeks of pain I went to ENT doctor because I thought I had an ear infection. But he did not find anything wrong with me.

After that I started to feel worse and I had pain in my ear and felt pressure also.... just like my eardrum was exploding or something. I then went to my Primary care Physician but he also did not find anything wrong with me either. The same week I felt like I was going to die from pain I went to the ER here in Iceland but that doctor also did not find anything wrong with me.

Confused Three months passed by and my doctor sent me to the City hospital (Borgarspitali) to meet ENT doctor. He did all the tests he could think of (like; hearing, CT… ect.) But he did not find anything wrong with me.



Now my doctor sent me to se Neurologist who sent me to CT scan but no results there either.

I went to Spain for two weeks and the pain completely vanished. But before and after the Spain vacation I´ve had the pain every single day, but not always the same…. Sometimes just a little tingle but sometimes horrible pain and pressure.

I don't feel any dizziness at all. Sometimes I feel like the pain is starting in the other ear also but I am not sure though.

The pain has been bearable this summer until I stopped taking all my meds because my doctor suspects I have a bleeding ulcer , but I am waiting to get an appointment with a doctor for that.

Anyways… since I stopped taking my meds the symptoms has gotten worse.

Question Can anyone out there suggest what these symptoms are reflective of & what this could be as its driving me crazy & I'm actually quite worried!
