I'm so sorry your having this. I have been having this for 10 months, I don't know if it will help if I share it with you. Mine started as a severe vertigo episode, where I felt like the inside of my head was rocking side to side, I still have it I call it dizziness as vertigo is a spinning sensation, It scared me so bad I have not been able to function without severe anxiety from it for the past 10 months. I feel it when I'm sitting, walking, standing, laying down. It subsides alot after I sit or lay down for a while. Along with it I get headaches with neck and shoulder pain, more like a tension in the neck and shoulders and it moves up into my head from the back to the front, I also have palps from the fear of it and some pain behind my eyes. I went to my GP and he sent me to an ENT who did some testing and a head ct that was done by me endocrinologist because I have a thyroid disorder and when I told him about this he ordered the head ct which came back clear. But the ENT found that I have migraine associated vertigo and mal de embarkment sydrome a little bit. So Ive been doing VRT therapy which helps the brain recompensate what information its not getting from the ears. The best thing to do is go see you GP and tell them what exactly is happening and that you are worried abuot a tumor so they can have that checked. But if you had your eyes checked chances are if there was a tumer they would have known. But I can tell you this anxiety and stress will make it so much worse, I know when my anxiety is bad and it has been in the past month I've had times where I thought I would pass out. I also have at times a falling sensation and when I do things like brush my teeth, dishes in the sink, vacuum or mop and shower, i feel like i"m falling foward because the motions of moving or bending forward will casue it and when I vac and mop I usualy get dizzy. I also when I'm having a episode it will start with slight rocking sensation in my head and move inoto the head and neck pain and this can last for 2-3 days. Butmy dizziness is mostly a rocking or swaying sensation, and yes it has made me crazy with anxiety and now depression because I'm afraid of everything. I have in the last week spent time accepting this as what it is, because with health anxiety we tend to think the worst and not believe what we are told by doctors. So when I feel it comeing on I just try to stay calm, because the anxity is awful with it and makes it feel 1000 times worse. But please find a good ENT neuor-otologist who can help figure it out. I also have realised my anxiety is worsening it because when I take a xanax it calms everythign including the dizzienss down.
If you hve any questions, please feel free to ask me. I hope you feel better and can find a good doc to help.

I can't actually take Meds for it I took some before I ended up having really extreme side effects and I was sat sweating shaking uncontrollable and was far worse than any panic ect attacks I've had before so it out me off and now if I even go near the Meds I have straight away a melt down 😩 I'm not strong anymore I used to be strong but it's completely been took out of me the doctor today has orders a ct scan don't know how long I'll have to wait but he said that he thinks it's probably migrain asscioated x

I'm relived about getting a ct scan ordered as atleast it will put my mind to rest he said he didn't do any examination but said it could possibly be migrain and he is confident they won't find anything on the ct scan but who knows especially with him not checking anything I'm worried about these sharp pains now though that are in my body is feel like it never ends I'm always poorly no doctor has mentioned that I have anxiety for over a year so this also played on my mind I got told in 2014 I had anxiety by my docotr range I was at a different surgery well they was later in the paper for not doing there job properly and also Writting there own prescription out and making fake appointments to do this with fake patient's then I got rushed to hospital with a fast heart rate the doctor there said to that I had anxiety and I was too young ect and I had cbt from there I never had anyone tell me again I have anxiety even though I've been to doctors 5 times in the last three weeks still nobody there has mentioned it straangley I have received booked myself into cbt though just incase it is
