How long does it take for positonal vertigo to go away? And what can I do in the!


Question: How long does it take for positonal vertigo to go away!? And what can I do in the meantime!?
Hi, I have been dizzy for over a week!. I went to a Dr!., he took blood and performed a few tests and said he is pretty sure I have a virus that is going around right now that has attacked my inner ear!.

In the meantime I am MISERABLE!. Vertigo is the scariest, weirdest, most debilitating thing I have ever experienced!. I only feel okay when lying down!. He gave me a prescription of Meclizine which has helped, and I am doing the Elpy's Maneuver, but honestly, it's been a week and I feel weak, dizzy and sooo out of it!.

I am being neurotic I know, but what if I feel like this forever!? Please tell me people have had bouts with this and it goes away!. I had never gotten dizzy like this before!. Thank you for your time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

She told me some exercises to do!.!.!.!.which being my stubborn self, I didn't do because they made me SO dizzy and made me feel even worse than when I didn't do them!. Just like you, I only felt fine lying down!. And here's what you're looking for!.!.!.!.YES, it did go away!! It was gradual!.!.!.!.I'd wake up feeling okay for a day, and maybe get dizzy by the end of the day!. Then maybe had a couple good days, then a dizzy day!. But it did go away!. And I felt just like you!.!.!.wondering if I would feel that way FOREVER!. This was a couple years ago, and once in a blue moon, I wake up dizzy and just have a day where I spin a little!. Even though I felt at the time like I'd never forget how long I felt that way!.!.!.!.I have!. But I'd have to guess it was about two weeks before things started improving and getting back to normal!.
