    Sorry, been like this for 8 yrs. I think it is either a neck issue or a vestibular issue. You may want to get a blood test and see if your numbers are good and go see an ENT and have them check your ears.

    Hi. So sorry for you.  I would go see a neuro-ent.  They have xtra training. If that don’t help and all tests and MRIs and MRAs are good the it would be time to see a neurologist.  Just be careful of meds they may want to use if it gets to that point.  Good luck.  Keep us informed.  Have patience...it’s a long process.

    I have seen a prof in vestibular problems and was diagnosed with vestibular migraines and put on meds which I don’t find does anything. Saw a physio only had 1 session so far but found it aggravated the situation
