24/7 Lightheadedness
Hello everyone,
I have been feeling dizziness and lightheadedness for a year now and I have no idea what is the issue. I had a MRI and CT scan of my head and everything came out normal. Even had blood check and thyroid check and everything came out normal. Because of my insurance problem, I was not able to go to an ENT yet but the only possibility I can think of is an inner ear infection. I googled my problem and it seems a lot of people have trouble similar to mine and its the cause of inner ear infection, and from the results I found people did not have a cure for this. I will finally see an ENT in about 2 week but I was wondering if lightheadedness caused my inner ear infection is usually incurable?
update: I went to the ENT clinic and the doctor said she has no idea what is my problem. So now I have to have a diary and write down my everyday feeling so they can get an idea of what is wrong. It is very discouraging that they have no idea what is going on. Seems like a lot of people that have the same problem as me never got a cure for it. The doctor said she don't think its meniere's disease because I don't have hearing problem and it should be gone by now. My doctor also said she don't think it is labyrinthitis because that too should not last 1 year.
Anyone have any idea what it may be?

So I recently went to a Neurologist and my doctor said she does not know what my problem is... I am not sure how to approach my problem at this point. Anyone have any idea or suggestion.
I don't think I have Vitamin D and Magnesium Deficiencies since I got my blood checked for sugar, vitamins etc. My ENT doctor thinks it may be BPV but is not 100% sure. I watch some youtube video and it does sound like my symptom.
I do want to add that when the weather is hot I start to feel worst. In cold weather, the symptom is there but when the weather is hot I feel worst.
