I understand somewhat the challenge. I been coping with dizziness for over two years. Luckily, my first encounter with a medical professional was critical. Over two years now, most of the progress is in the medical research I do and less on regular medical systems. I did find a great resource in understanding dizziness: Martin A Samuels, M.D. Neurology Brigham & Woman's Hospital . He groups dizziness to four classes: Vertigo, near syncope, dysequilibrium, ill-defined. Based on my assessments, my dizziness is not related to hearing or vestibular area...based on my symptoms and assessment, to proprioception. It seems you have a handle on your cause of the type of dizziness in your case.....it is critical to define the primal cause and move on from there. JIM>>>>>>>
