Brief Answer:
Probably vertigo due to inner ear problems.
Detailed Answer:
Hi again dear,
At this point I have to agree with your doctor that your symptoms may be related to vertigo due to inner ear problems.
The normal blood analysis excludes many other possible causes.
I also recommend to do a MRI for further evaluation.
Meanwhile, I would recommend you to take the medication Meclizine hydrochloride (Antivert).
It is an over the counter option to treat vertigo and nausea.
I also recommend to reduce salt intake in the diet.
If the symptoms continue I suggest you to consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.
Take care dear,
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
