I've been feeling unsteady while walking for the past 3 years, so I got a CT scan that showed dehiscence of the lateral semicircular canal. I had ear surgery, but the surgeon said there was no dehiscence only an infection, which they cleared during the procedure. My unsteadiness hasn't improved, and I'm really confused was the CT scan wrong or did the surgeon miss something? Who should I see next to figure this out? It's been so long without any answers, and I'm really worried this might be something serious with no solution

I'm really worried about my dad. He had a paralysis attack three years ago, and it's been tough since then. He's got 34 tiny blood clots in his brain, kidney issues, and arthritis. We've seen so many doctors and even had to put him on a ventilator twice. He's mostly bedridden now, and it seems like the paralysis has affected his tongue and mouth too. Sometimes he can open his mouth for food, and other times we have to do it for him. We've been to different hospitals, but we're still struggling to find a solution. Do you know what else we could try or maybe recommend hospitals with blood clot removing tech? Any advice would be really appreciated.
