Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

     The body's balancing mechanism is in the inner ear. An ENT (Ear Nose Throat) specialist is the one to see for dizziness...- they have special tests to confirm or exclude the contribution of the ear.
     May be an EEG may be of help – to exclude atypical seizures...
     EKG / HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring may reveal an arrhythmia
Psychological assessment can help - as he is already on anti-depressant (venlafaxine)..

Take care     
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
