Vestibular migraine

Can anyone tell me their experiences with these type of migraines?
I’m prone to the classic migraine, terrible headache, light sensitivity etc, but this feels different.
No crippling headache, more of a dull pain and a feeling of being very wobbly and unsteady. I’m on day 5 now and struggling.
The doctor didn’t know, but reading the symptoms it seems to be this!

I have vestibular migraines, although now experiencing some visual disturbance too. I have found my migraines 'evolve' over time.

My vestibular symptoms include dizziness/lightheadedness. Can feel as if I am on a boat. I walk into things as I misjudge depth and probably look like I am drunk on bad days. Sometimes some earache too, that is often my warning sign.

Mine can last a long time, but some days my symptoms are low level so I can wobble my way through the day. I hope this shifts for you soon.
