Tinnitus, Vertigo, Red Eyes and Spasms
9 months back I started getting vertigo and tinnitus. It was really bad for a month. Took a lot of medicines, mostly for anxiety. It got better.
I started to get back spasms a few months back, found out that I have weak muscles and vit d deficiencies. Started exercises, it got better.
I get annoyed by tinnitus every now and then even though the vertigo is not there. I got an audiometry test done. It came out absolutely perfect though I can not hear sounds above 14k.
Since last week, I have a stiff neck, tinnitus is back and I also got bloodshot right eye for a day.
What is it? Are these related or different problems?
Whenever I get tinnitus, it scares the hell out of me. Need help.

Acute attack of tinnitus and vertigo usually occurs in case of menieres disease and sometimes in a condition known as sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Since your symptoms are recurrent bus not associated with vertigo both the conditions can be ruled out. Sometimes neck pain can cause tinnitus which is known as cervicogeni tinnitus. I don't see any association between tinnitus and eye issues
