I Am Just Miserable. My Reg Doctor/cardiologist Has "ran Every

I am just miserable. My reg doctor/cardiologist has "ran every test" he could think of. Sent me to a ENT. Says he's suspects that it's not a middle ear infection/issue. I've been to the emergency room about 5 or 6 times and they also say there's nothing else they can do. Had a cat scan of my head - other than a sinus cyst - its unremarkable. I don't have high blood pressure - had heart echo and holter monitor done - minor leaky valve (doc says its ok) and I'm waiting to see a neurologist 4 days. 2 days ago, Ive tried motrin, tylenol, anti-vert, zofran, ativan, dramamine, all to no avail. I took 2 excedrins (250mg aspirin/250mg acetaminophen,65mg caffeine, each) 2 days ago and I swear it cured me. For 2 days I felt 100% for about 3hr-4hrs then I slowly felt my symptoms coming back, but I waited until my 6hrs hours had passed and took another 2 excedrins. I was for sure that this was over. Today Excedrin did absolutely nothing. My symptoms are back - with no period of rest at all. Everyone says they cant help me but please someone do something - I want to go to the emergency department right this moment but I know what they are going to say. WHAT DO I DO?!
