Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most common causes of vertigo — the sudden sensation that you're spinning or that the inside of your head is spinning. BPPV causes brief episodes of mild to intense dizziness. It is usually triggered by specific changes in your head's position. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/vertigo/symptoms-causes/syc-20370055
Purple, Can you tell us more about your vertigo? Do you have peripheral or central veritigo? Do you know the cause?
I get BPPV (Benign Positional Paroxsymal Vertigo)when there is an abrupt change in the weather. If I take a Claritin right away it helps. There are also YouTube videos showing the"Eply Manuever" to adjust the displaced particles in the inner ear.
However, all of this pertains to BPPV only. Best to be sure your vertigo isn't from something else.
