I thought the same thing. I get so dizzy I drop to the floor just to avoid falling. I cant even crawl without tipping over let alone manage to get somewhere to be able to do this. I did find something that helps for me though. My episodes are pretty intense, so within 60 seconds I get nausea and vomiting. I feel like Im tumbling in the dryer. Ive had five episodes in the last two months, but since Ive been pulling on my ear, they dont get to the point of nausea and the dizziness goes away fairly quickly, especially compared to just waiting for it to pass. As soon as I feel one start, I pull my earlobe out and forward parallel to my face. Then give it about 10 to 15 good tugs in quick succession. The dizziness fades in about 20 seconds or so (it feels like a long 20 seconds though) I keep my eyes closed while I do this to focus on whether or not I feel like Im moving. Open them occasionally to see if my vision matches how I feel. I stay seated until those two things match up. A stationary feeling and normal optics. Afterwards I feel a bit floaty but that usually goes away in about 30 minutes. If it doesn't, I take a nap and I'm 100% when I wake up. Im not a doctor so... I wouldn't take it as legit medical advice. Im just assuming the ear tugging is enough to jostle my inner ear to level me out. But if you give it a shot, best case... It helps and thats awesome. Worst case, you waste a few seconds tugging on your ears. Its been a simple life saver for me though.

There is a small crystal that gets dislodged that tells your brain your head is tilting or moving. This little crystal is present in every human being but when it gets dislodged it moves via fluid to an area it is not suppose to be. The epley maneuver is a set of positions to put your head in to put the crystal back in place through momentum gained in the fluid of the ear by using gravitational force by tilting the head in a certain manner via the epley maneuver. I did it and it did go away and also a little fluid actually exited the ear so I expected my feeling to be caused by a build up of fluid in the ear. I had a perforated ear drum and from time to time it will ring and apparently will build fluid causing the vertigo. The ear drum busted from a viral infection that after it popped my equilibrium was thrown off and started draining cerebral fluid (not good and sort of gross). I would be sitting and fluid would just pour out of the ear, I could also blow air through it by holding my nose which is a sure sign of a busted ear drum.

I have Secondary Endolymphatic Hydrops which is similar to Menieres and I have to watch I consume to avoid the lighheadness or flaoty feeling that you describe. You will need to start reading, a I did, to figure out what it going won with you. You might want to start with an ENT specialist and move forward from there.

I experienced Vertigo for the first time (I am now 68yo) about a month ago. It was a terrifying experience, which I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. It only lasted about 15 seconds, but felt like a lot longer. I sat on the bed for four hours, unable to move. Since then I've had three more attacks, not quite so bad, but bad enough. I am now doing various exercises to try to prevent it happening again, or at least make the recovery quicker. After an attack it can take me two or three days to fully recover.

Poor Brad. My question is why did the crystal become dislodged to begin with? I woke up dizzy. Scary. Did two reps and am eased back on stacked pillows. I laid flat first. I think its gone. I pray its gone. Terrifying experience 😳

I've had my first vertigo in my late 20s, after an accident that traumatised my back neck. Almost all vertigo crisis I've had since then happened after I did something that tired very much my shoulders and back neck. It got much worse after spending 8 months in bed in my last pregnancy though and 1,5 year ago, at 6 months post partum, I had a crisis that took like 5-6 months to fully recover... If I wasn't very careful, one wrong move triggered it again. Since then I cannot bent my head down to my right, or I get instant vertigo for some seconds. Which is what I accidentally did yesterday morning, but it lasted longer and I fell on the floor and I've been with nausea since then. Hoping it will not last for months again, since I cannot relax and take my time as a mom of three to recover. 😢

Thanks! I had this last week for 3 days after 10km intensive running. Went running yesterday again and it was back. Did my research and I think it's BPPV. I was at the doctor last week and pointed to my head and said "somehow I have the impression something is wrong inside my head on the left." I'm starting to understand what now! I did the Epley manoevre to the left, bit of speculation, became very dizzy and waited till it stopped (saw this in another video of yours!) and noticed a major improvement immediately. Somehow I think the vertical movement of my running triggers it. I found this research study related to that: _Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo after intense physical activity: a report of nine cases_ Next week I have a CT scan of my head in the hospital. ( P.S. A sister from my church send me messages last week telling me that she woke up in the night and the Holy Spirit told her to tell me my problem were the crystals in my ear.. I didn't look into it at that time, but now I think she might have been right. )

Thank you for your information about vertigo problem.

Love your videos. Sorry to ask another question 11 months after my previous one. But I wondered what does it mean if you suffer vertigo with certain head positions but NO visible nystagmus ? I record my eyes close up during my monthly BPPV attacks that last approx 10 hours each time. During that time I can't look up, or down or sideways without feeling I have just stepped on a merry go round, although oddly my vision becomes more rocky and swimmy rather than fast moving and I can't lock my focus. I feel very fatigued for up to 2 days after this happens, like very brain fatigued. I had a MRI scan last week of my IAMs and nothing sinister was detected. Would vertigo without visible nystagmus denote more cervical vertigo ? I realise goggles may be needed to totally rule out eye movement. I also realise you can't diagnose me, just purely curious if you ever heard of head position vertigo without nystagmus and what that could denote. The ENT did a Dix-Hallpike but I didn't feel dizzy, but that was done outside of one of my frequent 10 hour attacks. Many thanks and keep up the great work. I wish you guys were my doctor.

Thanks for the clear explanation. Glad to have found you! Yes, you are both very pretty.... LOL Anyway, I'll be trying the maneuvers to see if I get any relief since my apparent BPPV has become more frequent. Thanks again.

I had an attack of BPPV a couple of years ago - I was going to my doctor for something else and while I was there I suddenly started feeling really dizzy and I had uncontrollable vomiting- my doctor was very, very alarmed and so were her technicians. I also could not stand or walk without assistant. So my doctor would NOT let me drive home so she called the local hospital and they sent an ambulance. I was in ER for about 5 hours - since nothing showed up on all the scans, blood tests, and xrays they were very dismissive with me when they released me. I went to see my rheumatologist several days later and he had the exact same attack as I had and he told me I had BPPV.

I cant trigger the vertigo no matter what I do, but all the other symptoms are spot on. I get an episode ever couple months or so and I try all these maneuvers and I can never trigger it.

I just had my second episode in 4 years. The first onset was after taking 2 flights in quick succession and the second is coinciding with a peak in my seasonal allergy symptoms which almost always involve my inner ear, often resulting in am inner ear infection. Indeed my ears have felt quite congested for the last week. Something for others to consider as a B)PPV trigger.

Even though I worked in an ENT office years ago and had often recorded the diagnosis of BPPV on a patient's bill, or scheduled an appt for dizziness, I never really knew what this was like until it happened to me. It had been about 10 yrs since that job, but I did recall the diagnosis, so I looked it up on the internet and did the Epley maneuver myself. I was lucky enough that it worked, though I had spent a few dizzy days before I had thought of trying it. Months later, I had an incident when I stretched my neck up one evening, just stretching, I could feel the vertigo begin immediately. Now, I keep this possibility in mind most of the time.

OMG! The dentist chair is SO on point! This started as me waking up with extreme vertigo where I was violently falling and my heart was pounding. The MOST terrifying experience! And then I’ll spend days feel like I’m “on the verge” of vertigo or dizziness…if that makes sense? A couple of months ago I’m at the dentist getting a root canal and something about the combination of the drill vibrations and being tilted way back (back top tooth) set it off. I began violently dropping and had to stop them till it ended. Gonna try implementing these exercises and tests to see if anything happens. Thanks for trying to help us sufferers!

Just got back from the hospital and I'm still a little shaky. Friday night I moved my head to the left. Got disoriented. Then it took over 30 seconds and the room was spinning like 100 revolutions per minute and accelerating! Sweat was pouring from my face and then vomiting. Cat scan showed nothing abnormal in the brain: no stroke no tumors, nothing. They simply diagnosed me with Vertigo and keep me for a day and a half. My mother suffered with severe vertigo. Very scary. I think I have something more serious than BPPV.

Thank you for this 8 years later. Spinning CAN LAST more than a couple of minutes! The "afterglow" can make me feel fuzzy, out-of-it,lightheaded for hours or days. Until I learned Epley,spinning went on for a full day or more. Horrible feeling. Disabling. Takes away confidence to drive,or go out at all. I needed to hold onto the wall just to go to and from the bathroom. It recurs less frequently now, but I know Epley. In the beginning, spinning recurred every week or 2 and left me DRAINED.

P.S i have autoimmune disease call alopecia aerate. My friend was telling me about vertigo and she taught thats what it might be..?? Was just wondering what your thoughts were about this.?

Migraine and vertigo could be migraine associated veritigo (MAV)

I once had bppv for 21 days! Absolute torture!! Got the Epley maneuver and it cured it.

I have it now. In hospital 4 days. Came home on meds. Had three Epley so far. At least I can read and stopped vomiting. Going back for more tomorrow. It is awful. No seconds here but DAYS of it. Neurological team diagnosed it too.

Sue Pete God help me! I’m on my fourth day. It has improved a little. More therapy in future. You give me hope.

Hi Bob and Brad, thanks for this and all of your videos. I see that you recommend the Epley and Cawthorne, but not the Foster maneuver. I'm wanting to do the Foster as I also have Radiculopathy and can't do the Eple y. Please let me know what you think of it.

Cynthia Cashin my sister just was diagnose with this

I have had the symptoms you describe intermittently for 3 months. Now it is almost daily, I feel lightheaded and out of balance. I especially get dizzy and nauseous when I try to do the tests for BPPV. My Dr. gave me the link for the Epley maneuver but when I do the exercise, I experience nausea and vomiting. Do I just keep trying to do the maneuver? I was given Anitivert but it doesn't seem to do much.

We suffer because of this, I always feel like people think I'm faking this, but if they only knew the horror of this!!

Great guide, thanks :) Just wondered something, and you may not know why, but I had a MRI that lasted about an hour, and I was okay when lying down, but when I sat up after the whole room was shooting downwards multiple times for about 30 to 60 seconds, it was like some kind of vertical vertigo. Any suggestion of what might cause that ? I felt very unsteady for about 5 minutes after and needed to sit on the MRI operators chair until I felt comfortable enough to move.

I had vertigo that bounced up and down in a scrolling motion that was triggered while I was scrolling on my phone while lying down

Is there a possibility that you can have bppv in both ears? And if so, would you need to do epley, an semont for both ears? Stupid question, but it won't cancel out the effort for the opposite ear? Thank you in advance.

I was having left ear vertigo, which got treated with epley maneuver, but there is still some left over and I feel dizziness when I am keeping my head in up side down position, but not while sleeping, how it can be treated, and what type of maneuver is required to treat this

I have had this for almost a year and finally went to a doctor who actually knew what it was - am going to a physical therapist on Tuesday - HOWEVER, nobody can tell me "Why?" This is going on? Is it stress? Dehydration? Iron deficiency? Why can't one doctor tell me why, all of a sudden, this started occurring? It has been debilitating and very scary to deal with this on a day to day basis! Thanks for your video!

Sometimes doctors don't know what causes things. I would research possible causes and see if any of them fit what has happened in your life. Such as have you been in a car accident?

9 months ago i was diagonised with vertigo. Its was a 42 days horror story.. I repeat 42 days.I was very scared. Doctor said if you continuously be frightened you just can't get rid of it, and he provides me some excercise. After that I again felt vertigo for 2 times . I am today here to share with everyone about my experience and request do not panic. Do excercise provided by your doctor. After doing excercise after 7-10 days situation will improve..

Thank you for your reassurance, it helps. I was very frightened at first and I agree, it doesn’t help. Iieasy to say “Oh, don’t be scared!” but it is hard to do. It helps to hear from someone who has been there say “I did it and you can too!”

Agree…it is so so difficult to convince yourself to maintain as much of a normal activity routine after an episode ( mine are daily until it begins to get better after 4- 6 weeks….Its like convincing yourself to willingly walk into a lion’s den Takes huge mind work. My biggest challenge is going from sitting to standing when getting out of bed….and facing the bathtub is like facing the gates of Hades I try to focus on other health themes like nutrition …things I can actually change and improve…Bob and Brad are wonderful. Dr. Sten Ekberg is phenomenal on You Tube …wonderful in depth nutrition education. I have some trouble reading during episodic bouts of BPPD ( more on white background …much better on black screen backgrounds) Wishing everyone BPPV Be Gone ❤

so I am curious to know that if the crystals fall out of the inner ear into the semicircular canals and you do one of these maneuvers what's to say that the crystals could not possibly return to the semicircular canals? how do you stop that? Or what does doing these Maneuvers do to stop them from coming back to the semicircular canals as often as they do now of ever.

Very interesting, you mentioned you had an episode related to a dentist so did I but it didn't kick in until about 3 to 6 hours later is that what you experienced? I also had a acute reaction first time ever to an allergen which preceded the dentist is it by about 5 days and lasted about 3 weeks. I was in really bad shape for about 2 weeks. They did all the tests I did have rapid eye movement but the epley maneuver was of no benefit at all. It seems that my vertigo is related to a congestion and build above pressure in the three canals in my inner ear I am very slowly regaining my balance. Does any of that make sense to you? Thanking you in advance.

I have a question, can the first symptoms present as the room suddenly looking and feeling like it has shifted to one direction? (say left or right) This happened to me twice a few days ago, and now I am getting dizzy spells through out the last few days and they seem to be getting more frequent.

Did it resolve?

I don't know if I have 'vertigo' or not...but out of the blue and w/o notice, BAM!! everything starts going "woo woo woo' in my head, things go black, I feel like I'm going to puke, I'm instantly dizzy, feel like I'm gonna faint, and I absolutely MUST lie down IMMEDIATELY or I KNOW I'm gonna hit the floor if I don't lay down somewhere. It's a terrible feeling. I just have to lay down and push thru those scary symptoms til eventually they subside. Generally, even tho I may be in the middle of making dinner or something like that, I will finally fall asleep for about an hour and wake up (THANK GOD!) feeling ok. Weird, huh?? It's very perplexing.... VERY scary, and VERY uncomfortable.....to say the least!! I don't think I have what you are describing here...and my doc has no idea ...o_O Now, thanks to this video and demonstration, I know what to ask her!!

Same! Just out of no where, i feel like Im a sock in the dryer. Everything spins violently, within 30 seconds i start to get the sweats and nausia and vomiting. Last time, my body actually jerked back like it does the when a roller coaster takes off. I couldnt even crawl without tipping over it was so bad. Laying down helps a bit but as soon as I move or sit up..more vomiting. When the worst of the spinning stopped, i felt like I could just pass out, so i would take a nap whwrever I was laying at the time. The floatiness would last all day until I woke up the next morning. It was really intense. I found that tugging on my ears helps. Ive had five episodes this year but none got to the vomit point since ive started doing this. Typically, the dizziness subsides fairly quickly (within 30 seconds). I feel a bit floaty for a little while after, but that goes away if its not gone within an hour I just take a little nap if I can and when I wake up, I'm 100%. As soon as it starts, I take my earlobe, pull it out and forward. Keep it fairly close to my face, and give it 10 to 15 good firm tugs in quick succession (try it on both ears if youre not sure which one is causing the problem). Im not a doctor, so I wouldnt consider this as legit medical advice. but i figure maybe the ear tugs help jostle the inner ear and help me level out again? Either way, its been a life saver for me. If you give it a shot, just dont pull hard enough to hurt youself but firm enough to let those floaty ear particles know whos boss. Some people get worse dizziness than others, but if its that bad its worth a shot in a pinch. I hope it helps if you try it.

@@ollietabooger9065 Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and ideas. Glad you found some relief. I will surely try that next time.....which I just HOPE there is NO next time, but I can't imagine this just going away on it's own. It's pretty scary and thank goodness most of the time I have been at home when it happens, so I can just run to my room and lie down. Not so much fun when you are in a store and it happens. Thanks again for sharing and I will def tug on my ear lobe next time I feel this weirdness coming on!!

I followed this and have the third type, but you did not post a video that I can see about the process for it. Or am I supposed to do one of the Epley's? You said you'd post a video about the third one too?

Very few of these videos go into detail about how to distinguish the canal that the crystal is in. I've been doing Epley 2x a week for almost two months and it's not better. Nystagmus is horizontal, said to be bilateral but problem seems mostly in my left ear. The treatment is by a PT. When is it appropriate to break off Epley and try something else? Is there any harm in trying something else if the canal you're doing the maneuver for is not the one involved?

This was helpful. Much more so than another video I wasted 13 minutes of my life watching!

You move your head to the left you move your head to the right, you do the Epley manoevre to the left you do the Epley manoevre to the right...you do the vertigo twist with all your might!!

What about an atlas misalignment? I have that and been experiencing many symptoms since passing out, hitting head off toilet and floor, and whip lashing my neck while falling down. Going on a year now of pure HeLL come January. Been seeing an upper cervical chiropractor getting the Blair technique done. Saw a post concussion syndrome specialist and had cranial bone movement therapy, and going on 4 months of physical therapy and chiropractic adjustments for the spinal central disc protrusion, the hip, and neck. It's been a longggg road 😢 there's days I can't even drive. I don't lift weights anymore. And I seldom will get to ride my bike or walk. When I can it's a blessing to be able to do.

Thank you for the informative video! I have one question I am not sure if I have Vertigo but sometimes when I change position abruptly I feel weird my head feels like spinning I don't have proper vision and after 2-3 seconds everything is normal. Sometimes I manage to stand in the same position when this is happening but sometimes I even fall on the ground. I am not sure what is this condition

I got dizzy on the left and right and when I lay down in the middle. Wow that was like being drunk. lol

A few years ago I had multiple diabetes checks to find out what was causing my dizziness. Then researched this manoeuvre and guess what? Fixed in a couple of minutes :)

The diabetes checks just ruled out diabetes. I figured it out for myself after googling my symptoms :)

Just watched your vid. I know I have BPPV. I am what in the US is termed "legally blind" - Retinitis Pigmentosa. I've had 2 serious bouts and I get it mildly when I gently look up to unlock my big shed but no real problems. 20mins ago I placed my back against my fence to support me, just in case. I looked up to see the Swallows nesting under the apex of my roof. That was enough. I staggered. Back into my house sweating a dizzy. My eye condition means no upper vision so my head is tilted backwards far more in order to see stuff. Usually the little bit of vision I have is used to look at the ground to keep my balance. I'm ok now. Jock.

Thanks for sharing What about nystagmus if persists in both eyes for a while?

I think I had BPPV three weeks ago. I vomited any time I got up or moved my head and had awful vertigo. My mom (a physical therapist) told me it was BPPV because I had nystagmus and all of my symptoms were consistent with BPPV. After I did the half somersault maneuver, my vertigo was gone. But it came back the week after so I did the maneuver again and it worked. It came back again two days ago and the maneuver isn't working. Does BPPV come back often? And how can I get rid of it for good?

can BPPV just suddenly come on? I haven't had dizziness before without being I'll with something. but I went to sleep last night feeling slightly dizzy and woke up today feeling extremely dizzy. head movement is so bad. does it just hit someone that quickly?

My ENT specialist who diagnosed mine and treated it and then sent me to a physios for more treatment who did the Epley on several occasions and gave me a handout to continue for two weeks until the Vertigo goes completely. I still get it and need to go back to the exercises. I asked him what causes it and he said three things, Head trauma, Prolonged bed ridden and the last is the best Bad Luck.
