When i lay down on a pillow my head starts to hurt. if i stay in that position i get dizzy and when i get up it takes up to 30 minutes for the dizziness and mild pain to go away. otherwise when i am lying on my pillow and the pain begins to grow i change to the back of my head. when the pain starts again i flip to the other side of my head and so on. ENT found no problems and no hearing loss. where should i go next? any ideas? otherwise i am in good health. thanks!

    Sounds like a case of Vertigo. Definitely go talk to your primary care doctor about this!

    Benign positional vertigo, that's my guess.

    I have it.
