Have had on ongoing 'dizzy' problem for 2 years now and despite doing the rounds of ENT, Physio, MRI, etc. still have it. menieres and bvv have been ruled out and think my gp doesn't know what to do with me anymore!! Last consultant said maybe MAV, but despite his special exercises am still the same. so have given up going to gp as they don't seem able to help me and it's completely ruined my life for nearly 21/2 years. any suggestions??

Thanks for your post.

There could be a number of reasons for your symptoms.
The main areas that should be addressed are:-

Postural dizziness
Autonomic dysfunction
Irregular heart rhythms - such as bradycardia or tachycardia
Adrenal insufficiency
Hypoglycaemia
Carotid sinus disease

I would recommend you be referred to a local cardiologist or endocrinologist.
