Hi, Thanks for writing to us, I went through your history. The episodes you describe of staring blankly needs to he investigated further. These episodes are unlikely to be related to deniers disease or any problem related to the ear. The episodes are usually accompanied by amnesia and a change in consciousness. They usually originate in the brain. You need to visit a neurologist or a psychiatrist. You may expect them to ask for an Electroencephalogram and an MRI of the brain to rule out the possibility of seizures. Hope this helps Chat Doctor.
