Hi,
How are you?
Inner ear diseases like Meniere’s disease and BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) also need to be ruled out.
Sinusitis, postural hypotension also cannot be ruled out. The possibility of cerebral aneurysm and brain tumor is also there.
It is difficult to tell without a neurological examination, though a brain tumor usually produces other neurological symptoms like weakness and in coordination etc also.
Keep us posted!
You could have somehting called spinal stenosis you have some of the symptoms. This can cause a nerve or nerves to get pinched. I just had an MRI of the cervical spine and mine showed no problem with stenosis. A ct scan is a good start although you didnt say what they were going to scan. If you can you should probably get a brain MRI and if that shows nothing get an MRI of the cervial spine. I have the same symptoms as you except I dot have the nausea. This could also be caused by diabetes so if you havent had blood test to test for it might want to have that done to check. There are quite a few things that can cause your symptoms. I would suggest that you make an appoitment with a neurologist as i sounds like it could be something he could help you with if it is not diabetes or some other disease that could cause these type of symptoms. I wouldnt mess around with a GP or an Internal Medicine guy very long tho I would get to a neurologist and have him check it out.
