Brief Answer:
Your doctor is thinking on the right lines
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have carefully gone through your query and feel your doctor's angle of approach as well as his impressions justified. Alongside, you may try taking some vestibulocochlear statbilizer like betahistine or cinnarizine or even prochlorperazine. Talk to your doctor about these as these are prescription medicines but I think they can be of benefit.
Steam inhalation can also be helpful and you should try taking may be thrice a day.
Let me know if I could help further.
Regards
