Hi all,

I am currently 29, I have suffering vertigo since last year.
Getting the recovery on and off.
The worst time it hit me during MCO time where I couldn't work for 1 week...
Went to ENT and MRI, no issue reported from Doctor.
Went to physio, it took me at least 8 sessions to see improvement and it gets recover slowly and 80-90% recover, so I stopped going.

I thought of chinese meds might help in long run, so tried consume it for 2 months, but ended up I gave up and stop going since I don't see improvement.

2 weeks back, the minor vertigo episode is coming but not serious....
I know something is not right hence I start taking betaserc, cinnarizine and prochlor.

However, not much improvement so I went to Chiro, after few sessions but still not much improvement observed.

Yesterday night, when I lies down and the vertigo is coming back.
I rest awhile then tried foster maneuver myself, it even worsen and I got nausea feeling after doing that.

I feel so lost now and I dont know what to do. ENT dr claim that nothing wrong on me, just asked me to take meds but this is bothering me on daily basis.

Checking on many forum post and FB post, still not able to find any resolution.

If anyone of you have experienced this and manage to fix it, please do share ...

My mom has this, she's 75. Most of the docs which i brought her to recommended her to do some light stretching and exercise every morning right after waking up. She's a lot better now.

Maybe you should try that buddy if you haven't already. Hope you get better soon.

No specific one's per say. She does like hand claps and regular stretching like trying to touch her toes and what not. Light stuffs. Too old for anything intensive too

No...the episode of vertigo is on happened on few first days, then later willl get light-headed.
However, lay down or wake up will have minor episode but still manageable...
Fortunately I still can survive with it through day to day basis...

I tried this before and it works. even GP here also suggest it.

You must be really stressed. Try cool down a bit.
