Dizziness and Eating

Ok, I've had a lot going on recently. (Sorry to post and not read up, too. Just out of it.)
Right before I flew to CA 3ish weeks ago, I had a double ear infection. Come back, still not better. So add sinus infection and "extreme pressure build-up" to which they are referring me to an ENT this week. (I'm not even truly sure what that is, just that it supposedly is why I'm in pain.) In addition, I had dental work which turned into a surgical extraction Monday. So the long and short? Pain. I've got a pretty high pain tolerance level, but I'm maxing it out here.

I've been having dizziness issues, which well, I think are to be expected. But I noticed the last two days, when I eat solid food, I tend to have dizziness/nausea right after. I blamed it on the pain meds, but I'm just wondering if I should be alarmed at all. It just seems odd to me to be connected. Maybe I'm being alarmist, but I have no desire for another hospital visit after the surgery in February!

Ear infections can cause dizziness and vertigo. Did the doctors say anything about that?

Could be from the ear infections, or a combination of ear infections with the pain meds. Be sure to let the ENT doc know about it.
