Update:

So I went to the ENT earlier today and was told that I most likely don't have Labyrinthitis or the calcium rock thing (Benno something or another). My hearing and ear pressure are fine based upon several hearing tests administered. My hearing is actually better than I had actually thought.

However, the Doctor feels I do have an eustachian tube blockage issue. It appears that the sensation I'm feeling is fullness in the ear, which seems to mimic Labyrinthitis in symptoms. The pressure sensation leaves you feeling imbalanced and a bit anxious. He's given me some prescription Nasonex to help with it, although he has scheduled further "balance" testing in a few weeks. The test takes a little over an hour long and it'll confirm whether I have any lingering balance issues with my inner ear. Hopefully the Nasonex which I'll have to use for 1 month straight will alleviate any symptoms.

Anyway, thanks for the info. TV9. Hopefully there are others out there who may be able to benefit from some of the discussion here.
