Hi
Welcome to health care magic.
If your local clinician is pretty sure that you are not having vertigo and the brain MRI has also turn out to be normal then there may be some reason for your dizziness related to your cardiovascular system.
Please get yourself checked by a local physician for postural hypotension and also get a 24 hours ECG monitoring that is called Holter monitoring to analyse if you have any cardiac arrhythmias.
Also get fasting and postprandial blood sugar levels to detect whether you have any blood sugar levels abnormalities because frequent hypoglycemia can also lead to such dizziness spells.
All these problems will need to be ruled out.
I hope the advice will be helpful for you.
