constant dizziness

For a few years now I have been experiencing constant dizziness.  At first, I was really lightheaded and dizzy after having a severe allergic reaction to a drug called Torecan, and believed that was the cause somehow (my head was completely bent backwards with muscle spasms, as well as my back, and I assumed I may have pinched a nerve or the like).  However, recently the dizziness has gotten much worse to the point where I am really afraid to be alone in case I should faint or something, and I am also experiencing ocassional nosebleeds when I feel this dizziness.  All tests came back clear except for a CAT scan, which showed my having a severely deviated septum.  Should I assume this is all from my sinuses, or could this be something else?  My blood pressure and any other vital signs are normal ascross the board.

Actually, I've been to three different ENTs in the past two years, and after MRIs and other tests, there's absolutely nothing wrong with my inner ear -- they made sure to knock that off the list right off.  The only time I have ear troubles is when I get sinus infections, which sometimes produces small amounts of fluid in my ears.

Have you asked an ENT physician about Maniers Disease?  It's a disorder of the inner ear that causes chronic vertigo and dizziness.   I think that chiropractors have pretty good success in treating the disorder.  Would you be comfortable consulting with a chiropractor who has a good reputation?
