Rina, I will add my name to the list of those who have had vertigo intermittently over the years. So let's hope that is all it turns out to be. Of course, once we have had cancer, everything seems more ominous .
Let me tell you about a recent incident I had. Was feeling some pressure in my skull and had an episode of double vision. My onc ordered a brain MRI. (Meanwhile I was seeing a doc for TMJ. He thought the "pressure" was muscular in nature and not a brain tumor.) The MRI was negative for tumor BUT the radiologist said I have "multiple small areas of infarction." So now I have been sent to a neurologist. HE said the radiologist mis-described the findings and things are normal for my age. No "little strokes" after all. I guess I am telling you this to point out that sometimes things are not at all what they seem. Even if someone is suggesting some reason for concern. Upon investigation it turns out okay. The anxiety, however, is excruciating.
