Could vestibular problems and DPDR be related

The DPDR I have been experiencing since 2015 got better at the end of 2016. However I still have anxiety issues and feel light headed.

However, a couple of days ago I woke with a full pressure sensation in my ears and head and a low pitched constant hum that got worse when the kettle was boiling on the air condition fan was on in the bathroom. Anyway by the afternoon it went away and I felt a lot better.

However, last night I was feeling tense and had a bad headache and a bit of toothache so I took a paracetamol and went to bed. The next morning I woke up and felt a lot better and I got up to feed the cat and go to the bathroom. I then went back to bed but when I turned over in bed I felt a dizzy sensation which freaked me out.

I opened my eyes and seen the room spinning like being on a boat cap sizing. I then closed my eyes and the dizzy sensation eased. It wasn't until I got up to go back to the bathroom that the whole room started spinning and I started panicking.

I then tried to walk to the bathroom but I was losing my balance because of the severe spinning dizziness I was experiencing. This lasted for about 5 minutes then it eased. I then tried to lie on the sofa but when I lay there th dizziness came back full force.

With this I am now starting to get the horrible DPDR effects back with everything not looking real and I am not in my body. I went to my Doctor who did tests and he thinks I could have vestibular problems with my inner ears.

When you say "lost my sight". Do you mean complete blackness or just overwhelming auras and colors? If it's the former, that's quite scary.
