I've been off all antibiotics for a little over a year. In mid July I had an intense vertigo episode with vomiting, which lasted for several hours. Since then, my left ear is full and I have been dizzy and off balance. I started having numbness and tingling again.
Dizziness and numbness/tingling were some of my main symptoms after a tick bite, and they improved drastically with treatment, but never went away.
Does this sound like a relapse? Candida? Something else?

I am sorry to hear you are going through it! Can you cut out all dairy, sugar and gluten to narrow the picture down?
Our son had the same thing happen -- and it was caused by food. It is something you could start eliminating while waiting to get into a doctor.
We did the whole chiro atlas orthogonol upper cervical care, went to another chiro, went to a oto-neurologist, had 2 MRIs, went to another neurologist and, and, and it was food caused. We figured it out ourselves.

When you say your left ear is full, any possibility you could have a low-grade ear infection? That could cause the dizziness and off-balance feeling. I suggest checking in with a primary doc or ENT specialist.
Another thought - when the neck vertebrae C1 and C2 are subluxated, that can cause the symptoms you're describing. A good neck chiropractor can check on that.
No, it doesn't sound like candida symptoms to me. Sounds more like the above or Lyme symptoms acting up.

I had severe vertigo before I was diagnosed with lyme and was bit 6 mos prior. Acupuncture helped me the most.
