Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

Your symptoms are typical for inner ear problems. You should stay calm and try to avoid fast movements of the head.

If you were my patient I would recommend to do:
- Blood work
- ECG
- Audiogram
- EEG
This examinations are essential for the proper evaluations of your symptoms.

Meantime I would like to suggest:
- Avoid fast movements of the head
- Take betahistine
- You should take multivitamins supplements especially magnesium suplements.

Hope this was of help!
Wish you health!
