I Have Dizziness, Headache With Rib Cage Pain

Hi, I am 16 years old and female. I get several symptoms and get some of them very often. I am unsure if any of them are related, what they mean, or if theres anything i can do. I get a dizzyness very often. Its not like a fainting dizzyness but more like the ground is moving underneath me, or my legs arent catching me, liek im just going to fall. I feel nauseous very often. I get headaches very often. I sometimes get stabbing pains in the top of my head. Often my headaches are at the front of my head and behind my eyes. I also get a pain behind my ears that goes down to about mid neck. My ears feel full. Like clogged up. I occassionally when i lie down get a rattling under my rib cage when i breath . I also have a lot of trouble sleeping. I dont know if i do sleep, but i often feel like i havent slept at all. I recently had a blood test and nothing showed. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

sorry too many questions but neccessary information. if you are having this long it could be migraine which is often associated with vertigo (dizziness) or this could be a middle ear or a sinus infection which needs antibiotics ....
