Lightheadedness, Dizziness, Burping, Head Spinning, Vomiting, Sweating. Scared

hi I am a 37 year old female. For the last almost 2 years I have been suffering light headiness, dizziness and excessive burping. The other day I was just sitting on the couch with my daughter watching tv and my head started spinning like the whole room was turning I tried to lay down and close my eyes but this did not help.I had to go in the basement because I was sweating like crazy and then I started belching this lasted for like 30 min until I finally threw up 3 times. I was so scared I felt like I was going to die, my heart was beating like crazy.It has been 4 days since and I am still very weak and light headiness. I have gone through every possible test.

Neurologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Your symptoms are episodic and involve giddiness with nausea and vomiting. Do you have any problems with hearing or any ringing sound in ears? if so you are likely to be suffering from Meniere's disease. you need to get evaluated by ENT surgeon for ruling out any external ear problems. Following that some tests like audiometry etc are required. Sometimes migraine may present with such symptoms without any headache. After ENT evaluation you need to consult a neurologist.
Good luck.
