Labyrinthitis: A person's case can be exactly so. It is not unusual that the MRI and lab tests are normal, although it is important to make sure they are normal.
There are many symptomatic treatments, such as exercises, changing dietary salt, and medicines, such as meclizine and lorazepam, which can be helpful.
