Hi,
I have heard that can be the effects of covid, never had covid and don't plan on getting it anytime soon. Rest assured vertigo can be taimed once you understand what sets it off. I have it permanently but am able to drive and do most anything I wish. For me it comes down to using the eyes to look around and not turning the head as much as possible, I'm able to look up but struggle looking down and back to neutral. Tying shoelaces can be a bastard and usually catch me every time. When driving I rely on the mirrors and driving aids in the modern cars. I will say it can catch you unaware at times when you least expect it. For me it threw me of my house roof smashing my anckle. But that is because I won't let it control my life. I have gotten used to the instability when moving around and can react quickly enough to support my self, although not always quick enough!
With luck you will never have to think of it again.
Cheers
