Tinnitus, dizziness, and off balance.

I’ve had ringing in my ears almost a year. My dizziness would come and go with my anxiety when it’s elevated, I’ve had anxiety most of my life. But my dizziness got pretty bad for about almost 3 months which is affecting anything I do, driving, going out, working, etc. I try not to move my head side to side, and up and down too quickly, It makes it worse for me. I went to my gp doctor several times and mentioned my ringing, he just gave me methods to cope with the ringing. I decided I had enough, dealing with my anxiety daily on top of this is too overwhelming. I went to see an ENT doctor. He told me he wants me to do an MRI & eye test where I’ll put on some vision goggles. I’m trying my best managing my anxiety, ptsd, some depression. I thought things couldn’t get any worst but this tinnitus, dizziness, and off balance is making me go down the rabbit hole much faster.
