Anyone have vertigo? What causes it?
7 years ago I had a bad attack of vertigo. No med problems found. This past Saturday at 5 am woke with vertigo. Went to ER at 8:40 pm, they gave me meclizine & ondansetron. Did a CT of my head & neck: negative. MD did eye stuff (?) & said he didn’t think it was a crystal in my ear. Still a bit dizzy. My annual wellness visit was Monday & all my tests were fine. Does anyone have an idea what caused the vertigo? I’m still a bit dizzy but no vertigo.

Very interesting reading the comments. Vertigo can certainly be caused by a lot of different things. I have had PT for BPPV 3 times and the Epley maneuver worked great for me. However, not too long ago, I had pretty severe morning vertigo, went to PT and discovered it was not caused that time by the floating crystals. So, I proceeded with a PT, specializing in vertigo, and he fixed me right up. The PT and my allergist concurred that the dizziness was probably caused by the prescribed nasal spray I was taking for my asthma. I stopped taking it and the vertigo disappeared.
