Nausea, dizziness and shortness of breath is never normal - you need a full evaluation by a physician, most likely. If your condition is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo you can see a physical therapist for canalith repositioning techniques.

i just did this and fek me i feel so much different, i was dizzy just standing from sitting and couldn't lay on my back, i did this and it is still there a little bit but nothing like it was, so im going to do it a few more times and see what happens,,

it is worth a try.

@kempouk You should also see a physical therapist to check for factors which may contribute to dizziness or for conditions that could masquerade as dizziness. Never rely on the internet as your sole source of medical information.

@cervelo58 Actually they would need to see a doctor since PT'S, not even DPT's have diagnosis within their scope of practice, then they could see a PT if warranted.

[cervelo58]

@drreedindeed DrReedIndeed is correct - physicians have the only unlimited license in medicine and, in some states, a physician referral is required before patients can access a physical therapist.

Physician screening under fee-for-service often leads to excessive costs and poorer outcomes, eg: routine ordering of long-term anti-vestibular meds, like Antivert, may actually INCREASE your risk for falls.

Seek out practitioners who treat a high volume of your condition regardless of license.

What do you do if you don't know which ear is affected? They told me at the hospital it had to do with the crystals but not much more than that.

Please help. I am only 13 and I have recentley been getting horrible vertigo attacks. I need to know if this is normal for a teenager at this age. I have had attacks where I have nausea and I'm left gasping for air. I asked my doctor and she recommended syringing my ear. Will this help me in my case? And if not, what should I do. I feel like I'm spinning when I'm still. And I also feel like I'm spinning in confined spaces. I feel it less out doors. What should I do about this and how can
