Guest guest Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 Dizziness and blocked ears-these sound more like adrenal symptoms to me. Is the dizziness worse upon standing? If so, it might be due to low aldosterone, which is an adrenal fatigue symptom. If it is just constant dizziness I am not sure, though. I am not sure about the pounding heart.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 Thankyou liz I am in the process of checking my adrenals. I don't have other low aldosterone symptoms and I did the " torch in eyes test " and that seemed OK, but if it doesn't improve I may have to do the proper test.
