@laughlin1947 I know this was written a few years back, but you described exactly what I’m going through now, for months! Did you ever figure out what it was or get it resolved?

@ashleycole66 My vertigo finally went away completely. And I can't say that any vitamin supplement helped to "cure" it, but I know when I was going thru the worst of it, the meclizine motion sickness tablets helped quite a bit. I never tried diphenhydramine/Dramamine because f the potential drowsiness factor, and did not try the ginkgo biloba option either. I never formally tried the Eppley maneuver either, although I tried lying on the bed and hanging my head over the side, to no avail . I still remember waking up the first day when it hit, and I woke up to not being able to stand up, had no idea what was going on, had to slide down the steps on my behind, and it didn't even after a few hours. I went to 2 ENT doctors who had no advice for me either. They were uninterested, just bums. These days, it seems if doctors don't get to operate on a patient, they will spend 5 minutes with the patient and most times turn around and ell them they can't help. That's sad. I still believe strongly in the meclizine option, it's over the counter and lasts 24 hours or so.
