I'm currently taking meclizine, gingko biloba, occasionally Sudafed (decongestant effect), and high dose taurine (found in energy drinks) which reduces my tinnitus. My dizziness transforms pretty quickly after I get out of bed, from dizziness for a minute or so, to loss of balance with no dizziness after I stand up. I'm pretty sure I have the BPPV thing, but I'm not keen on PT helping much. My dizziness seems to originate in the back of my head, so if I were to shift my head backwards, I'd feel dizzy or just lose balance and fall down. It's weird that 3 weeks ago, for a period of 4 days, I had the most severe loss of balance along with dizziness. 4 days later it was completely gone. Then 4 days later it came back. So, I make sure I sleep on all sides, although I am a typical back sleeper. I get no dizziness when I am reclining for sleep. It's a shame the ENT doctor was not helpful and such a waste of time. Thanks for your response, I will check out the PT maneuvers you mention.
