[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi - I am prone to dizziness and have had a few issues that I had investigated in the past (MRI's included). Last time in summer of 2020 I got dx of vestibular migraine (I get regular migraines)

Now for the last month, I get vertigo when I move my head certain ways (it changes and sometimes it's left, right, up or down) the vertigo stops within seconds when I move my head back but a few times, I almost fell.

I have an appt with a PT this week and I assume he will do the Epley. My question is: right now 97% of the times I am fine- working, driving, walking, etc. but sleeping can get annoying. I am worried the maneuvers may worsen things. But assume I need to treat?

As a side note, I am always anxious and this started during a time of stress.[/quote]

H[b]ave doctor check for "ear crystals". I've known 3 people who have had them Dislodge in the last 6 months.  Until they go back into place, they cause vertigo/dizziness/etc.  Apprrently it is a common thing[/b]

This.  After having been tossed about in a rollover car accident, I've learned that certain ENT doctors are trained to dislodge those crystals and put them back in place.  The medical community learned this from Desert Storm cadavers.  Brilliant cure for me.  I've had to do it three times.
