Detailed Answer:
Hi

Welcome to HCM

Your Symptoms (spin around. sometimes it is really bad the while room keep rotating. and at times it gives a sensation about to start such spinning around and when i move my head it stops.) plus MRI Finding of Tonsillar Ectopia can denote a CVJ Anomaly

You need to consult a Neurosurgeon in person to check the Power, Sensation and Reflexes and also test your Balance and Vestibular Functions
