Bryan, if the Flonase is making your anxieties worse, then ask your doctor if the Flonase is only going to cause anxieties for you on a temporary basis or not.

welcome to the forum. Flanase will not make anxiety worse, believe me, I am old woman dealing with anxiety for over 50 years, at the same time i deal with allergies, a lot of that. The older medication for asthma and allergies contains a lot of ingredients that caused the anxiety but not the flonase. I had been on it for years. The symbicort I am on now may cause higher heart beat thats all.
I had inner ear infection about ten years ago and the dizzines still is here, I have to slowly turn in the bed to avoid it . The ENT doc and neurologist (I went through all tests) told me that something is floating in my ear and it will eventually absorb, It had, I think due my age I have some dizziness left. 10 days on antibiotic is pretty normal. I would rather think that your health anxiety makes it worse
Good luck with that dizziness, it makes me miserable when i get it, Driving is out of picture :)
