See a specialist...: Ask your doctor what he/she would recommend as a next step. A visit with an ear, nose, and throat doctor or neurologist will likely get you closer to the answer.
Consider a condition known as 'migraine associated vertigo' as a possible cause.
Good luck!

Need to see an ENT: And/or a neurologist. This could be sinus or inner ear related (ent focus) or related to migraine or other headache causes (neurologist).
Please coordinate a plan with your doctor to see these specialists as appropriate.
