Summary
Coast 47504 developed ear pressure, a plugged ear and off-balance feelings, and by October the ear pressure and balance problems had improved by around 90%, but they had developed heart palpitations that start when they get up and move, along with sapped energy, partly put down to anxiety after a family bereavement.
