Hi,
I feel like i'm falling apart, i think I have an ear infection. My balance is all off, I feel tired all the time and I feel ill. On top of that i'm waking up in cold sweats, I feel like i've not had any sleep. Objects i've put in one place appear to have moved. I know i've sleepwalked in the past and I just want to know if its started again and how I can prevent this?

Hi James, it sounds as if you're dealing with two different problems here, both of which require specialist treatment.
If you think you have an ear infection, you feel off-balance and you're waking up in cold sweats, you must see a doctor immediately. Ear infections, though by no means always dangerous, should never be ignored.
If you do have an infection, this is likely to trigger attacks of sleepwalking in people who are already susceptible.
Sleepwalking is a hard one to crack, and is best approached by a specialised doctor in a sleep clinic.
