BPPV

Hey there, I (24 yr, F) have been experiencing vertigo/BPPV symptoms for 5 years now, daily.

It is positional and bilateral. My left side is worse than my right side. These past 5 years ive explored several diffrent treatments as finances have allowed. Ive done every holistic treatment ive come across, lifestyle elimination to see it was triggered by environmental factors or diet, blood work, I've seen 4 diffrent PTs, a chiropractor, several doctors, and an ENT.

Most recently I seen a PT that specialized in vertigo, she discontinued seeing me due to my vertigo symptoms having no improvement. She tested all my canals and expressed that they were all positive, confirming it being bilateral with my left side canals being severely worse than my right. We did every diffrent epliey maneuver under the sun with no improvement at all. She referred me to a neurological optometrist due to my abnormal eye movements she observed during the maneuvers. Also recommended that i have scans done such as an MRI. The optometrist denied seeing me for vertigo/dizziness.

Im looking for advice or similar experiences. I dont know what my next step should be. I dont want to waste money on scans if they're not beneficial for my condition. Im open to literally any suggestions or input!!!!
