Not so easy!: It would be great if our anxiety induced symptoms some of which can be severe were "based" in as piece of nervous system tissue which could be safely removed surgically...alas this is not the case. There are, however, some very useful medications and therapies which can help remove the EFFECT of these anxieties and deal with them directly. SEEK a Health Care Provider who is familiar with "C.B.T"

Ear or Vision issues: are possibilities, along with anxiety. Please see a ear nose and throat specialist, then a neuro-opthamologist if needed. They are fancy sounding titles but your family doc can refer you. Peace and good health.

Poss. Mild vertigo: Chronic mild vertigo can last for years. All test resuls can be normal. Anxiety diagnosis is given based on normal test results. Try Meclizine OTC 12.5 mg 1 tab. 3x/day and keep increasing each week to 2tab. then 3 tabs then 4 tabs 3x/day. You can stop at any point when either your symptoms are controlled or intolerable side effects occur. If no response with 12 tabs a day then effect not likely.
