Hello @mrhodes
I appreciate the additional information about your history of PT. It certainly is unfortunate that your experience was not a good one.
You might do well to seek out a certified vestibular therapist. These folks have been trained in methods to deal with vertigo. You will probably find certified vestibular therapists in major medical centers or a university hospital center.
Here is some information from the University of Michigan about vestibular problems and therapy for post-concussion problems. https://www.med.umich.edu/1libr/Neurology/NeuroSport/VestibularTherapyForConcussion.pdf
Here are some samples of VT exercises,

As you can see, these exercises can make your vertigo seem worse for a while. It can take several days or weeks before it gets better.
Do you live near a university medical center or another major medical center?
