I have it and the doctors gave me medicine to control it. I only take it when I have it bad.

I sleep walk as well thought and it happened one time I had vertigo, Ended up falling over everything.

Lack of hydration is sometimes responsible....... Just a thought....

Mmm saying that just done 7 day of the juice diet. But cant see that causing it! Ive had vertigo before and it was like that but a tad worse where it felt like my eyeballs were rolling round my head!

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

Have you been checked to find the cause?

I have Meniere's Disease and can fall over a lot when I have dizzy/sick phases. I have found yoga has helped. The drugs and diet stuff made no difference but controlling my fluid intake and keeping it under 1.5 litres a day does seem to help.

If you've had it more than 3 or four times I would get it checked, just in case there is anything else going on. I get a lot of nausea on the days I am affected.

I have had that twice, the 2 nd time I had to have an injection to stop me being sick as every time I moved my head I threw up. Hope it doesn't last too long.

I used to suffer from it when I was nursing and had MRI brain scan, all the tests etc. I started with Stemitil then when that stopped working I tried another drug, sure it began with P but cannot remember name!

It's not nice at all is it? I used to vomit and fall to floor then felt d*unk!!

I gave up nursing and left my husband and now I only get it when stressed so makes me wonder if that was original cause!

My mum also has Meniers and has regular attacks

Found out my eldest son has Vertigo when he was 16 and we were on holiday in Egypt. About 500ft short of the summit of Mt Sinai at about 3am, he suddenly collapsed onto a rock and was on the point of blacking out. Fortunately I'd taken a space blanket with us, so I wrapped him in that and me and his brother got him back down to the Bedouin cabin we had passed a few minutes earlier, where we waited until after sunrise and we got him back down the mountain.

I had no idea what was wrong with him, until I took him to the GP when we got home. He's never gone near heights of any extent since, and as far as I know can't go on Fairground rides now either.

And we never got to to see the sunrise.. Oh well...

Get your bp checked. I was having bad vertigo and doc told me that dizzy spells were an early warning of a stroke. When she did my bp it was nearly off the scale mind.

That would be prochlorprazol I think. My mum used to take it.

Vertigo has Nothing to do with heights!

Acrophobia is a fear of heights!

Vertigo is to do with balance and your inner ear.

Ear infections or Labrythitis is usually the common cause and once you have suffered it, repeat attacks are quite common.
