Constant crackling sound in ear with heaviness in head and forehead

Hi
I am a 26 year male weight 69 Kg Height 5'6''. I have been staying abroad for my job for last 6 months. After one month of coming here I started having headache and heaviness in head and forehead. It's not something worse headache in my life but pretty bad. I went to a general physician and then to ENTs. They told it might be due to sinus infection and some kind of allergy. The doctor had prescribed me some nasal decongestants. It went away for 2 weeks and then again came back. This time I had crackling and popping sound also added in my ear. When ever I move my jaw or swallow anything I get this weird feeling in ear. I started feeling dizzy and heavy feeling in head sometimes with blurry eye sight. Got my eyes checked as well. But eyes were fine. I went back to the ENT doctor and he asked me to have an MRI. MRI result came fine. Then I had an audiology test. That too was fine. In a allergy test, it came out that I am allergic to American and Europian dust mites.My doctor told me it's surely due to allergy. My eustachian tube had been inflamed and thats why I am having these symptoms. They checked my BP, Heart rate all seems normal. Finally they told I will have to live with this or will have to change the city. Right now I am doing a pretty good job and dont want to lose it just because some allergy compels me to do so. For last 6 months I have been feeling the same. It's like affecting my whole life here. The ear seems always crackling and popping, with weird heavy sensation in head. Sometimes mild dizzy sensation and a feeling that I will lose my balance. Always feeling fatigue and lost-interest I tried Nat Mur. 6x . But it didn't help me much. Please note I had ulcerative colitis and under homeopathic medication for that for last 2 months. Please some one help me. Any reply is greatly appreciated.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Hi what homeopathic meds are you taking for ulcerative colitis?

When did that problem start? and are you still on medicines
and how is that going? Were you on allopathic medicines
for this before homeopathy?

Have you told your homeopath about the allergy problem?

some medicines prescriptions cannot be taken with other
medicines or they will cancel each other out so the history
of the colitis and medicines has to be given.

Hi simone717, Thanks a lot for replying. Currently I am taking Merc Sol and Argentum Nitricum. My ulcerative colitis problem started around 3/4 years back. It's not something very severe. I used to take allopathic medicine and followed by ayurvedic. For last 6 months I left everything and totally on homeopathy. This allergy problem started around 4 months back. I told my homeopath and he prescribed me to take Natrum Mur. I took for around a month. But it didnt help much. Thank you.

What kind of potency and dosing are you doing with
Merc Sol and Argentum N?

Daily? weekly? and you have been on this 6 months?

Is it getting any better?

I don't think any one would prescribe on here while you
are under another homeopath. Bc they would want
to look at your case in totality and probably come up
with another prescription. Could be that allopathy for
the colitis suppressed some things and that is why
the allergy is showing up. Also wondering if the merc
sol and argentum N are curing or palliating the colitis.

Here you go! Argentum Nitricum 1m I took around 3 months back 2 doses in a gap of 15 days. Then after another 15 days I took Argentum Nitricum 10M 1 dose. ! month back I took a dose of Argentum Nitricum 50M 1 dose. I havn't started Merc Sol 1M yet.Probably will be taking from next week end as per the prescription. I am quite better in this medicine plan. The allopathy medicine for colitis I left long back. It was just probiotics mainly. so I am not sure if this is the reason. But I am not sure about ayurvedic.

Hi- glad medicine is making you better- and you are taking some
powerful potencies here that last for months and are designed to
boost your overall life force-

Probioitics are not allopathic medicine, Probiotics are really concentrated
food to help your gut bacteria be in balance-Depending how you eat,
or if antibiotics in past, probiotics are a good thing to take daily. Should
have at least 8 strains of bacteria in them.

Your dr. gave you a cell salt 6x for the allergy- usually you can take
cell salts with remedies, but not other remedies in a c or m .

Have you been living in the same place for the last 4 months? Bc you
might want to move and get better apt. - air circulation etc, you can
buy an air cleaner with hepa filters to keep absorbing the dust mites,
or if you have carpet you might want to move into place with wood floors.
Also you can buy ( see ocean premium nasal sterile salt spray.) this
stuff works great ( get non medicated!) flushing out the sinus and it
also comes with some gel that you can put inside the nose to trap
allergens. See if you can find similar where you are. I think you need
to address this in a practical way first while these other remedies are
working on you.And if you are in same building etc that you started in?
you may be allergic to some mold, or lead or chemicals in the area that
you are not aware of.For instance, a friend of mine could not live in One
area of southern california.Reason was 'dust' was blowing into that town
from farm fields non stop - so they became allergic to dust bc of the quantities of
dust coming into that area and simply had to change towns. They never did
like a desert like weather in the first place but did not get sick. Now, since
living in the farm dust/chemical wind tunnel they do have some mild allergies
that show up when weather gets very dry and windy but don't live in that climate.

So It may be where you are living- the house itself and you should try staying in some
other houses, apts and see if you feel better as a first step.

Thanks a lot for your view. I need to update something here. Today I had my appointment with another ENT. He checked me overall and told that may not due to some allergy. Because I am not having any allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose or congestion. He will be testing my inner ear and audiology at end of this month.
I am still very much disturbed with the dizzy feeling and spinning sensation. Sometimes I am feeling my pulse(very mild) at the back of my head. Can you tell me what may be the reasons?

ok- you started homeopathy 6 months ago. This began 4 months ago.

These are all symptoms of the Argentum Nitricum. See the remedies shop
up above- and click on that remedy and read what it is used for. Then click
on body parts on left that are affecting you and read that.

It may be helping your colitis but you have been on very high doses and you
are proving this remedy. Exhibiting things you never had before -overdosing.

Interesting in that this remedy is a big remedy for VERTIGO and that the antidote
for this remedy is Nat Mur.

Right off the bat - here are some things arg nitricum causes:
incoordination. want of balance physical and mental
inflammation of the throat, head symptoms often call for this remedy -
such as headache and pressure- BLURRED vision, noises in the ear Plus vertigo.

So your timeline is -4 years back - colitis - 6 months back homeopathy and this
remedy-4 months back the headache and throat ache show up ( you take
decongestants it leaves for 2 weeks- then returns ( you probably antidoted the Arg Nit
and then took another dose or if you were not on arg nit at the time you may
have had a real flu or cold? But as of now- these are Arg Nit symptoms and you
have had doses that last for months.

Why would your homeopath give you the ANTIDOTE for your main remedy to
fix what the remedy is doing? while he is still having you take the remedy in extreme
high doses while antidoting in very low doses?

You need a new homeopath and you need to antidote the Arg Nit. You keep getting more doses of Arg Nit while
'improving' when normally you wait and take nothing while improvement is going on.

If you want help finding another homeopath let me know where you are.

If you want someone on here -you can use edit button and put Kadwa in front of
your headline to help you out with a new prescription. or perhaps some Nat Mur 200
c doses to antidote and then new prescription for what the colitis is doing after
antidoting. I am not a prescriber so please ask for Kadwa. I think the mystery of this
is solved.
