Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have shortness in breath, dizziness and fatigue. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like ear infection , condition like meniere's disease , food poisoning , heart problem or anxiety disorder . I would suggest you to stay calm , avoid bending forward , avoid food like nuts and sea food , drink plenty of fluid and drink green tea thrice a day . If condition doesn't get better then consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order certain test like CT scan of ear , examine with otoscope , rotatory chair test and balance test . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like gentamycin , antiemetic drug ,anti inflammatory along with vestibular therapy .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
