-> I've been suffering with tinnitus for 4 years, constant got better over the years, livable

-> 2 months ago I've been starting to have vertigo. I have bouts of like 2 minutes of vertigo. First one was when I got some very bad news and had like a panic attack, violent spinning etc. Subsequent ones also had to do with straining of some sort (physically). I also get bouts of light-headidness like I am falling for few seconds.

-> it has affected me a lot psychologically as I don't really do much nowadays, being afraid that I might have an attack.

What could it be? I've been to the ENT, she has done all kinds of tests, but told me it was nothing ENT related. Been to neuro but he refused to comment without brain+ear MRI, cervical MRI and cervical doppler plus blood tests. I've been reading the internet so much and am terrified that i will never figure this out.
