lightheaded

hello friends,
Here's my story. 12 months ago I got out of a steam room (sauna) and into a freezing cold plunge pool. After spending 8 minutes in there, I numbly climbed out and headed towards the showers. Apparently this is good for you after a workout.
Anyway, while in the shower warming back up, I felt a sudden wave of lightheadedness. I thought I was gonna pass out. Since that day i've had the feeling 24/7. My balance is fine and it seems to be more related to an area back behind my eyes. I feel a constant numbness in my head, like i've got a head cold. I sometimes feel like I have trouble focussing on things.
I've had all the major tests done, and i'm still waiting to see more nuerologists, but nobody seems to have a clue.
I sometimes get chronic anxiety about the whole thing.
Does anybody have any clues or advice?
Thanks.
