      Same. Vertigo is pure living hell. I got up this morning and it just started coming on. I did the Epley manoevre on both sides and when I got up it got worse so that I was just sobbing and crying out to God for help. I had noticed an eye tick recently and thought, I must take some magnesium. Then the vertigo. I have a magmin tablet in my mouth now, I hope it works. Are you better now Lisa?

      i had a car accident where i was 7, crashed with my bike into a car's door and fell unconscious, woke up seeing my dad in an ambulance heading to the hospital. i had to be in the hospital for 2 weeks to get out and everything seemed to be healed and fine. but now 10 years later as i'm 17 now, i think the car accident damaged my brain in anyway. i get to be really dizzy whenever going on a bus trip, boat trip, sitting in a moving car for a long time, sometimes when working out and just whenever my head moves too fast or i spin my body for a couple of second fast i get the feeling of vomiting i become so dizzy that i just wanna lay down on the floor and i start to sweat really bad i feel really hot and i also had the feeling of falling unconscious a couple times. im really wondering now if i have vertigo or not, i googled if you can get vertigo from a car accident and it said that it could be a possibility but i'm still unsure. i'm going to see my doctor about this but i wanna know if anyone else has this issue too and the same symptoms as for feeling like you have to vomit, you get to sweat really bad, you feel hot headed and you get a spinning sight and also feeling like you will fall unconscious please anybody let me know what this is?

    My wife suffers from Meniere's disease as well as serious neuropathy. I have been giving her cannabis oil for the past five years. Stopped all other medication such as Neurontin and epleptin since I started giving her the cannabis oil. She sleeps well and for the most part both the diseases are fairly well under control.The withdrawal symptoms from the chemical medication was traumatic.

Seen an ENT, lab tests are fine, the mri’s are fine, and now I’m here sounding CRAZY. My doctor says that my depression could be why I’m hypersensitive or feeling all of these symptoms. The truth is that dealing with this for the past 3 years has caused my depression. I’m healthy, I’m a former model/athlete and I’m here googling and YouTubing for answers. Dr. I want to thank you for this informative video. I’m still going to find a doctor hopefully like you in LOS ANGELES. 🙏🏼

      Hi this guy does not know the complete story about vertigo. If you're taking psychotropic medications such as a mood stabilizer like lamictal name brand lamotrigine great day cause vertigo attacks. It's not listed in the pharmaceuticals list of possible side effects ask Google or Siri or whatever VPN you prefer a specific question does this medication cause vertigo you will find the answers you will find many people dinner taking the medications you were taking with the same problem. the doctors do not know how to use the internet to find out the correct answers they read the first thing they see on the internet about the medication pharmaceutical companies have employees for the sole purpose reposting there side effects possible side effects so they stay at the top of the list the first few host will be posted by the pharmaceutical company you go down further you will find the answers you're looking for. it's not the doctor's fault completely they are being lied to and they don't know it there are being manipulated and they don't know it. Since this guy is not trying to sell us anything he doesn't know it but he's not trying to sell a medication so I think he's telling the truth he just doesn't know the right answers

    • @Yuppie.Mike.
      @Yuppie.Mike. Před 5 lety +4

      If you're taking lamotrigine name brand lamictal it is the cause of your vertigo. If you're taking any mood stabilizer or any antidepressant you could be the cause of your vertigo it could also be the cause of short term memory loss and it is also a cause of self-loathing especially if you're depressed. Your medications the doctor is giving to you is designed to keep you from killing yourself not to make you feel better. if you're having these attacks paper up your medication slowly don't bother talking to your doctor about it they do not do the research they should. They read on the internet the top four or five articles which have been posted by the pharmaceutical company. They don't realize they're being lied to on a daily basis their entire career

    I have had dizziness & noise in my head all of my life. I think, I have had so much tinnitus and bouts with vertigo it is sometimes hard to remember what it was like. When you experience it you just want to get away from it. I feel confused sometimes when I'm asked to tell what I felt. I can remember constant "noise" in my head from a very young age. I interpreted as "the sound of silence"! I know that was a a line in a popular song in the 1960's. I thought everyone could here silence when we were all quiet and sleeping. When we moved to the country and spring arrived with the spring peepers, frogs and toads calling for mates, it was the closest thing I had ever heard to the noise in my head. My noise is a higher pitched and a less distinct sound. The thing that frustrated me most in the spring was that sometimes after the peepers season was over I was certain I was still hearing them. My paternal grandfather took antivert for many years for dizziness, he painted bridges for a living after WW. I know when I get to heaven I will be blessed that the sounds I will hear will be the glorious sound of everyone glorifying and praising God. If that is the sound of silence it will be amazing!

    I was Diagnosed with BPPV after going to the ER in Nov. In all my research regarding BPPV vs Meniere this is the most clear cut informative information anyone has put out there to date. But be careful about one thing, In all the research I studied: If you are diagnosed with Meniere's the state that you live in can/will take your driver's license away. For how long I don't know. My understanding is your healthcare provider must report your condition to the DMV. As always please do your own research on this topic as I did.

    This video is very instructive. I have BPPV that is caused by the otliths (calcified crystals) that break loose form the tiny hair-like structures. When I have these episodes, I get vertigo when I put my head back on the pillow and turn to the right side. The vertigo lasts for 4-5 seconds. Also, if I get out of bed too fast and start to walk, I will get light headiness. I've had this condition for 30 years, the condition will come every 2 years or so and last for 8-10 days and would go away on its own. Now, I'm plagued with this all the time. I use two maneuvers to aid me: The Half Somersault maneuver and there is a exercise put out by the University of Michigan Physical therapy Department -- both are found on youtube. Both exercises have to repeated for several days to be effective for me.

      Sounds like me. Same age as you are and have had this on and off for 40 years. It comes on with no warning and is totally debilitating. I quit going anywhere too far from home for years, and I raised 2 children with it. Had to quit a job because of it, too. Sometimes I feel I missed a lot with my family, and I feel regret because I didn’t always get to take them on great vacations or do a lot of things with them. Fortunately, I had a good husband who filled in for me when I had these bouts. He’s a saint.,I functioned okay at home the best I could, but one time I had a bad spell of dizziness while driving and that scared me. I was very careful where I drove from then on, and had to white knuckle it when I absolutely had to drive to help my aging mother who lived an hour a way twice a week. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. I’ve had all types of dizziness, too. Some were definitely BPPV, and others were general imbalance, but some was room spinning vertigo. Cause unknown. I came to believe it had something to do with the coordination of the eyes and brain, as well as, allergies that swell the inner ear. As I’ve gotten older it still comes and goes, but I can manage. I’ve had a couple of rough BPPV episodes in the last year but the off balance still comes often, but I just try to cope. Otherwise, I’m in pretty good health, thank goodness. Praying for all fellow sufferers and us long haulers. God Bless. 🙏

    Excellent video, Dr. Childs! Thank you so much for putting this on CZcams. I have had 4 serious episodes of vertigo during the past 14 months, one lasting 90 days. This has involved a LOT of nausea, throwing up, clinging to walls just to walk down the hallways of my house, etc. Completely debilitating. I am currently NOT experiencing vertigo -- yay! -- but I never know when it's going to hit me again, so that has added stress to my life. I've had a brain MRI, a neck MRI, an audio test, a VNG test, physical therapy for 6 weeks with Epley maneuvers, etc. (which did absolutely NO good), and lots of medications. NOTHING has helped, and nothing has been able to pin-point where the vertigo is coming from. I was very interested that you mentioned the situation with patients experiencing neuropathy in their feet. I had neuropathy from 2012 until 2014 due to breast-cancer drugs/treatments. I still have little bouts with it, here and there. My Audiologist (who administered the VNG) also told me that the Mono virus can lie dormant in your system for years, and resurface much later, manifesting with symptoms like vertigo. Mono almost killed me in my Sr. year of High School, 38 years ago as I had such a severe case of it. Have you ever heard of this? I'm getting no answers, so am interested in this as a possibility. Thank you!

      @@Nuverselive "sorta." After all those tests in 2017, it was discovered through a brain MRI that my carotid artery branches off like a piece of yarn from the ear up to the brain, winding around itself all over the place, instead of making a straight path like most people. I was told this *can* apparently minutely delay the blood-flow to the brain, and could have "contributed" to all the vertigo, though the primary cause was found to be my neck being completely out of position. (Discovered through chiropractic treatment.) Once I began having regular chiropractic sessions to put my neck bones back into place, the vertigo resolved itself, and I haven't had any since. I also sleep with a "My-Pillow," which helps tremendously! I'm a fine artist working in watercolor, so I LOOK DOWN quite a bit, and this was the primary cause of my neck becoming "disjointed." I now take more frequent breaks, and utilize regular stretches, in order to relieve the tension in my neck. Thanks so much for reaching out and asking! I'm much better now, five years later!

    This has been very helpful! I came down with a stomach virus last year. Although most of the symptoms associated with the stomach virus has dissipated for the most part. The dizziness has not. It’s been 5 weeks now, and the dizziness remains. It’s not only positional- as an episode can come on while I sit or lay perfectly still. What concerns me are the new symptoms that have appeared in the last 2 weeks: earaches in my right ear, periods of disorientation. I have experienced some periods of memory loss (recall simple words, trouble recollecting if I fed my cat). My first visits to the specialist was just this week for simple hearing test. I am due to undergo vestibular testing in two weeks.

The 1st time I experienced the vertigo, it was very , very severe. I could not hold my self up and had to have help just to go be to the bathroom. The vertigo was so violent that I litterly felt I was rolling down a hill in a barrell. I vomited violently for about 9 hours straight. I could not function on my own.

This almost killed my daughter and holistic doctors believe the antibiotics are causing cancer and autoimmune diseases. There are products that are natural that might help you. I use echinacea and garlic for infections. Oregano Oil is the most powerful one I know of. Some claim colloidal silver is great, but I have not experienced anything phenomenal from it. I just take raw garlic cloves when I am sick. It is up to you, but pharmaceuticals from doctors can be harmful. Read up on them.
