Even one specialist agree and another one completely say No to surgery and scares me

One thing helps me sometimes is ear plugs (still, unbelievable). Go ahead and try the vestibular therapy. You can always stop it any time.

I am still trying things. I take a break from therapies. Recent one I tried is dry needling on neck and head for headaches. I doubt it helped any.
I just got out of a coffee meeting and man, oh man. Was on the verge of passing out the entire time...Just sick of this...I get so lightheaded and faint I think I'm going to fall over at any moment. My vision then completely gets messed up. If I haven't had been to a ton of docs and tests I would honestly be going to the hospital in suspicion of a stroke or something. It just feels terrible.

I have tried the needling too. Did nothing for me. My neck is a problem too. I have what feels like chronic inflammation in the area due to serious whiplash from my accident and triggers easily. I have found Curcumin to be most helpful keeping it at bay, however still a daily struggle and the dizziness/vision issues are always there in restaurant scenarios, regardless of the neck acting up or not.

Really just lost at this point.
