Suggestion
Melanie,
I've been thinking about one other possibility for you, since I think somewhere you mentioned that you have had the dizziness or vertigo-like feelings for a long time (i.e., they are not necessarily related to cancer treatment).
You might consider trying to find a physical therapist who specifically has been trained to work on vertigo and dizziness problems. Although I was skeptical that PT would be helpful, it worked big-time for me for the steady dizziness/vertigo problems I was having several years ago. The problem I had was due to having had surgery for bc on the left side and a sentinel node biopsy, on top of a previous left shoulder injury that was turning into "frozen shoulder". Basically my neck muscles were tightening up because my left shoulder was so weak, and things were squishing my nerves at the neck. This suggestion is a long shot, because you also have had extensive evaluation by neurologists, but may be worth considering.
