  • How can you figure out which ear is the trouble? It started off turning my head to the left and now when I lean my head back (looking up) then straight again. Two Dr.s told me BPPV --but which ear?

  • The claymation dix hallpike maneuver video can help u determine which ear is in trouble.

  • These procedures are only helpful if one does in fact have BPPV. The method used depends on where the BPPV is located, most often in the posterior canal. This is not for Meneiere's patients as their attacks are not related to abrupt position changes, but rather excessive inner ear fluid in the vestibular organ.

  • Yes, this is true. This maneuver is only helpful for 'ear rock' BPPV.

  • my balance specialist told me to look at the claymation dix hallpike maneuver video. It helps me immediately.

  • Glad to hear that. Actually it's not much different from the other maneuvers, but seems to be designed for detecting early signs of BPPV. During an attack, you will still need someone to assist you with this maneuver, tho.

  • @InfamousDainton yeah... and same here. The moment i started getting on the computer too much it hurts my head and i start to feel dizzy. And sometimes if i bend over or look up it triggers. For me this is even worst than having a disease or something becuz tho we don't feel pain or anything but somehow its really annoying. Now im almost to graduate high school and im too scared to go anywhere by myself becuz if i get dizzy i get scared being alone. We don't know when this would last.  :(
