Tension headache? Cluster headache? What is this?

Hi everyone. I've been having a couple symptoms lately. Pretty much, it's just when I raise my eyebrows it feels like something is pulling in my head. Or like a jumpy feeling. Every once in a while, I'll have vertigo that lasts for a couple minutes. I'll also feel vertigo like whenever I'm riding in the car and stopped at a red light. I've had family/friends tell me it sounds either like a tension headache or a cluster headache but I have no idea because I am not familiar with either. Some friends also said miniere's disease or BPPV. I also believe I have anxiety. Could that be the cause of it? I've convinced myself that there is something seriously wrong with me, like a brain tumor. I don't really have head pain with it, but that feeling is annoying and I just want it to stop and I want to feel normal again. The doctor keeps telling me I have a sinus infection, but I don't want to just keep taking antibiotics. Thanks for any help. If anyone has any tips, I would appreciate them. 😦
