Hi My Name Is Britanny, For The Last 2 Weeks

Hi my name is Britanny,

For the last 2 weeks I've been so poorly with a lot of different things. First, I had an outer ear infection in my left ear and an inner ear infection in my right ear supplied with a temperature of 41.2 and a chest infection.

It started to fade away until I got a perpetrated eardrum in my right ear which has only just started to clear up. Since being ill I've had these sharp pains in my head which causes me to go dizzy when standing up and lose my vision for a couple of seconds... About 2 days ago, these sharp severe pains have gotten worse. The pain is consistent and is going down the left side of my head/face. It's effecting my ears which have servere sharp pains but nothing like an earache, something I haven't experienced before. I've taken paracetamol, ibrufen, these stronger migraine/headache relief tablets and nothing seems to be working. They are that painful, I cry and I cannot sleep!! Please help, this illness will not go away just keeps getting worse.

I also struggle to do things for a long period of time e.g. I can't stand up too long at all even in the shower as I start to feel sick, that sick that I have to get out and sit down by the toilet because I feel like I'm actually going to be sick. I've got a serious loss of appetite, I've been living on black currant juice for this whole illness, I've barely eaten anything. I struggle to eat anything given to me!
