Q: Abnormal Brain Ct

Hello,
I went to ER due to frequent headaches and severe dizziness that had be going on about a couple of weeks. While at ER I received a brain CT. As I waited for the results I was given antivert, that didn't help dizziness. The doctor received my results and came to talk to me. He stated that the lower part of my brain was sitting lower than usual. He stated that this abnormality was the reason for my dizziness and headaches. I took that info to my PCP and nothing was done about it. Since then my dizziness has become worse and I have "spells" when I feel as though I'm being shaken very hard. It occurs sometimes when I turn my head too fast or even when I'm walking, talking or moving period. It makes my tongue feel very tingly everytime it happens. It's happening so much that I'm starting to get scared. My symptoms are not relieved by meclizine, ativan or benadryl. I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm really afraid that something is really wrong. I've been diagnosed & treated for a motor tick associated with Tourette's as well as panic attack syndrome. I really need some kind of advice or a point in the right direction.
Thanx, Chocolat Confused
