Anyone have vertigo? What causes it?

I sincerely thank you for your reply. I did mention to the ER doctor that I had just gotten over a very bad head cold with lots of nasal congestio, he said that could have caused it. Left side temple pain too, which I understood him to say could be stress ( yeah going through some stuff). Valium was suggested if it didn’t get better but after some neckizine in the ER it lessened enough to go home. I plan to keep meclizine on hand, stop worrying about stuff I have no control over, etc. luckily just had my wellness exam & all is well there. The “ eye thing”, the ER doc said my eyes weren’t reacting the way he’d expect with the ear crystal thing. If it doesn’t happen for another 7 years I’ll be grateful :).

Well I've been experiencing unbalanced walking since December of last year.
Have done 2 VNG test it's not my ears. Aka Crystal's.
They say it's vestibular Hypofunction. I know it's horrible 😞 can't go shopping because it's too much movement and lights irritating 😑 I'm ok outside walking with a staph but all they keep doing is sending me to physical therapy. Not helping 😕.
I get so jealous of people that are able to walk like I used to I was sooo active now afraid of falling. Found out I also have neuropathy in feet and legs. Heart is good for age.59 .
Just several things going on and I blame it on long covid. My blood work is coming back crazy but they are shunning it off. One dr said it's fine just don't show an oncologist 👀👀 that scared me.
Don't know what to do.
Can't work or drive or do anything with Grandbabies like I used to.
