Pinging just about anything, for me, just about always has no less then ten percent echo request timeouts. For the most part it's quite a lot more, like twenty five percent. Exceedingly rare is that I sometimes get as low as eight percent timeouts.
Now, this is at home, using my iOS 10.0.1 iPhone 7's Personal HotSpot via WiFi from my macOS Sierra 10.12.6 on my Mid 2015 MacBook Pro. It's reasonable to expect there'd be some lossage but I have by now convinced myself that it's not actually my phone's nor my box' fault.
(Note that GeoLocating my IP puts me in Seattle, so every fucking day I get all the local Seattle traffic reports, city council coverage, the occasional Crime Of The Century taking place in Redmond &c.)
There's a data center just upstairs from NedSpace so we get very, very good WiFi there but even so there are more lost packets than I regard as reasonable to expect.

Something that damages sensory nerves is a given.
Side effects of drugs will do that. There are antibiotics and chemotherapy drugs that will cause those symptoms. That's just what I've heard of; there are probably more drugs that do this. You seem to take lots of drugs. Speaking of that, at some point you end up like my grandma with over 20 different drugs to take, most of which are to help with the side-effects of other drugs.
Viral problems could do it. My dad got the ear issues. (vertigo is likely an inner-ear problem) He suffered weeks of being unable to stand without tipping over.
Degenerative (in your DNA) troubles are of course harder to fix. With that, you're probably screwed. Maybe you can be somebody's gene therapy experiment.
Autoimmune could do it. This can be triggered by a virus (possibly long gone) or bad DNA.
