Your symptoms are suggestive of an inner ear disorder. Meniere is an inner ear disorder, characterized by episodes of vertigo, dizziness, troubles with hearing and ringing ears.
Do you have any of these symptoms? I would recommend taking meclizine or dimenhydrinate for a couple of months.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
