Hi, thanks for your query. In my opinion, you might be viral infection of the inner ear.
It can be clinically evaluated and treated.
MR I would not detect labrynthitis.
If I were your treating doctor, I would have prescribed labyrinthine sedatives like cinnarizine 25 to 50 mg. Along with this, betahistine tablet 16 to 24 mg twice daily for 3 weeks are helpful.
Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
