Feeling Off Balance When Lying Down

For about six weeks now when I lye down I actually feel like Im rocking, almost like Im on a water bed. When Im standing I feel like I want to sit down and not stand long. Not because anything is spinning but I just dont feel right. When I shave I lean against the sink. There are times when it doesnt bother me and times when I dont have the symptoms when going to bed.

My wife wants to blame it on sinus' or allergies but I dont sneeze or cough or have a stuffy nose. Some think its vertigo but I dont have any spinning just off balance feelings. Its more a sensation than a feeling really.

I do feel myself rocking sometimes side-to-side when standing. Any one else experience this? What do you guys think?
 
A few years ago I had something similar, except more extreme. When I would lay down, it would feel like the whole world just tilted. I'd start grabbing for the bed to try and not roll out of it, even though that wasn't an issue really. It felt like it.

Anyway, it got diagnosed as a viral inner ear infection that I just had to wait out. I got better in a few weeks.
 
You don't have to sneeze to have allergies (Where do people get that idea anyway???) At any rate, I'd see an ENT as he can address allergy, sinus and inner ear issues.
