Hello, if you are reading this comment, you’re probably going through the feelings of this. I just want you to KNOW that it’s ok! You will be okay! The feelings are just that.. feelings and sensations. They are ofc unpleasant but dwelling on them will increase the suffering. Know deep down that some way or another it will pass. Probably after doing what the video is showing. Regardless, just want you to know that you will be fine. Blessings to you ❤
I really needed to hear this it’s causing me so much anxiety right now I feel like throwing up so bad I feel nauseous anyone else feel this so bad it makes them nauseous
@@raquelmata7698 yes feeling nauseous is normal and common. just know that the anxiety is separate from the vertigo, you can actually feel vertigo and not feel anxious, the way to do this is that you have unshaken trust and faith that you will get through this. You WILL recover but give yourself time and be patient with yourself. Try the maneuver, once for at least 2 days.
Thank you so much. 😭 I have been dizzy for 3 1/2 months. 24/7. No relief. I started googling all kinds of things and didn’t have the symptoms of any of the diseases like heart disease, etc. I saw this and did it, and it work immediately. I can’t even tell you what it’s like to finally get off the carnival ride after months of suffering. ❤
I have the same problem, I knew it was bppv and got the first treatment felt fine, but after a week I think it fall back again, causing me constant dizziness, do you have the dizziness in your head all the time even with moving much?
Was in a car accident a month ago & have had random dizzy spells ever since then. Went to the doctor multiple times was finally told I need to see a neurologist or a specialist. Just did this & it completely fixed me. Cannot tell you how much I appreciate the help!
A couple of years ago I was struck with severe dizziness. Tried to wait it out to see if it would go away, never did. Made an appt with an ENT and they did a boat load of tests only to be rudely told by a nurse that there was nothing they could find and they made an appt for me with a Neurologist. In the meantime I'm freaking out thinking that I've got a brain tumor or something. My husband told me to contact a Chiropractor. She saved my life. Did the epley maneuver and I felt like a whole new person after dealing with it for months and also, my back has never felt better lol
I’m sorry that you experienced that-I’m a med student and I just learned about this, so I wanted to learn how to perform the maneuver. Hopefully I can use this info to help people with similar problems in the future!
@@SteveKilgore27 Thank you for wanting to help. It's terrible. I no longer get dizzy spells. Ever since I removed my eye tooth and drained my mucus from my head and neck.
Wow I’m shocked how well this worked. For me it took a few tries to fully go away but I noticed immediately how I was feeling less and less dizzy. And now I don’t get dizzy at all anymore. I literally just woke up a few days ago and got supper dizzy randomly, whenever I would move my head a certain way. I didn’t even know what was going on with me until I came across this video. Thank you so much!
@@Grimmjow19872 one time each day before sleeping, 2 minute each position, and 5 minute the last position; 30 minutes/1 hour seat without move Normally, it take 3 weeks to recovery If you want more try each days, wait 3 hours between each
@@Grimmjow19872 If you have otoliths, you may have a nigthalamus The solution is the rotary chair. Every day 20 times on each side little by little until there is no more oscillation 5 rounds, we fix a point eyes open, the eye should no longer vibrate It takes 3 months to heal
My partner had sudden onset vertigo for first time with a lot of vomiting with any head movement. Went to urgent care got a definite diagnosis. I did this maneuver at home him………and it worked! Thank you sooooo much for this video. Vertigo is horrible😞. Thank you so much 😊
@@jackiebourg6869 It can come back, or linger to a lesser degree. Doing the Epley maneuver helps if it is lingering or comes back. No harm in doing it daily if you need to.
Many people don't understand that vertigo it's one of the most horrible things to ever exist. Because the effects don't just go away when it stops, you feel like vomiting you get the cold sweats in the shakes for at least 10 to 15 minutes after. So what happens all the time you'll be feeling like that constantly and you'll never want to move at all.
I came from school n my mom was feeling dizzy i said ive learned about the fluid in bio book so i direct searched in yt n found this vid i did this therapy to my mom n shes feeling so good now ...thanks
Thank you so much for this. Last night, everything looked like it was moving, like my walls, and i wanted to throw up. When i did this, i just laid down for a couple minutes, went to sleep, and woke up feeling so much better. Thank you
@@austine1858 as far as i remember my eye didnt twitch, and though i didnt throw up, it felt like i was going to, and i had to stumble into the bathroom a couple times
I was in a helicopter crash almost 10 years ago. I took a ~58g impact to my skull and face and the right side of my body. Everything healed up and I'm mostly ok now. While I was in the hospital, I noticed that every time I looked up and right, the room would start spinning. I didn't know what the problem was but I thought it must be really severe. I was still a long way from even walking, but I thought I would never drive or mountain bike again. One of my physical therapy sessions ended with the PT doing an Epley maneuver and then me staying mostly still for the rest of the day. It fixed me and I've been fine ever since. Yeah, the Epley maneuver is good stuff. Thanks to the RUclips algorithm for bringing this to my feed. Next up, EMG.
@@SincerelyGeetNever after this manoeuvre. (Although i did often in the past with a type of migraine, that went away, now i've visual migraine.) But after this manoeuvre never. And it works evry time for me !
Thank you so much, been suffering from dizziness for almost 2 months now. I had vertigo 2 months ago and have been through hell. vertigo and dizziness went away right after I repeated this exercise 3 times on each side. God bless!
This exercise is a temporary band-aid, so it will likely return at a later time. I have over 35 years of experience. There is an underlying cause that you have not been properly tested for yet. It is "not" cancer or COVID. If you or anyone else would like proper guidance for free, please send me an email. My email address and a brief summary of what I do are in the "About" section of my RUclips profile. Click on the "E" in the circle next to my comment, click on the big "E" again, and then click the "About" tab.
@@rishabh6422 If you're feeling the symptoms doing it then it's probably working. I had to do a similar procedure a few times. Most of the time it didn't do much, but then after one time when I got super dizzy doing it I felt much better the next day. I haven't had an episode in a few years now. The timing is important, gotta go slow when the procedure says to go slow and fast when they go fast.
@@zyeborm it actually worked but came back after 2 weeks. I went to the doc and he performed an di hiplec something procedure to check if I still have that bppv but there wasn't any vertigo. It was fine for almost 4 weeks and then again felt vertigoish. Idk what it is.
I had this dizziness for a few weeks and thought it was just a sinus cold. I went to my doc and he did this procedure on me and didn't tell me what it was or what he was doing, I didn't know what was going on. After He was done putting me through the maneuver I wasn't dizzy anymore. THEN he told me what I had and what he was doing. I found this video and did more research. At 64 I had never heard of it before. It worked for me.
I was feeling dizzy when getting up for over a month. It usually get better on its own, but this time it didn’t. Followed the instructions on this video and it worked. Thank you!
@@deborahanne9793 yep, exactly. You also need to pay attention to the side and angles, and hold enough time on each stance. That is if your dizziness is actually caused by this.
I came back here to say THANK YOU. This actually worked. I am a dancer and vertigo affects my balance. I thought I can never dance just like before. But after following this for the first time, my vertigo never came back again. During the procedure, I felt nauseous, dizzy and I vomited. But it was worth it
Had vertigo for a few days (when I laid down or changed sides in sleep I would be very dizzy). Did this and it worked. Slept last night without any episodes. Still feel a bit brain fog and uneasy but it’s a lot better
do vertigo always feels spinning or sometimes like the floor is moving below our feet or a feeling like we are not moving with earth pls can you clear out if this symptoms occur in vertigo bcuz iam fed up
I had my second bought of vertigo, and after five days, my mom talked me into trying this! I watched a bunch of videos on RUclips! This was the best one and the easiest for me to try! I had vertigo for six days and this worked after one try! And that night I slept on two pillows to make sure the crystal didn’t go back in the wrong place!
This saved me last night!! Thank God I remembered I felt dizzy right after rolling over the night before otherwise it would've been hell to diagnose. Tried the maneuver on both sides cuz I wasn't sure which side it was and it worked the second time! Holy crap the puking all day was insane and you saved me! The nausea continued for hours afterwards but slippery elm pill fixed that up good
Thank you. This is my 3rd time experiencing these horrible dizzy spells. Came on suddenly early this morning. The rehab center told me and showed me how to do this maneuver, but I would never remember without your video. It really helped. I thought I was doing it wrong, but after about 5 times, I finally felt better and could sleep. Thanks again. ❤
I feel so much dizziness when laying down. Tried this method, I still felt dizziness and breath difficulty when I opened my eyes. Now it gets better 5 minutes after I get up. Thanks
I’ve been dizzy for over a month, did the maneuver three times, exactly like in the video …. Now I am more dizzy and more nauseous. I will try again later hopefully it will go away. So happy it works for some of you, it’s an awful feeling.
my vertigo just left me now (as in) after doing this steps!!! YOU ARE A BLESSING I'M SUFFERING FROM VERTIGO ABOUT 2months now, and then watching vids to treat this but nothings happened but this TREATMENT IS SO LEGIT! Thank you soo much.
I am currently in need of doing this procedure. I’ve had the symptoms for 4 days now. I think I will perform the maneuver tomorrow, soon to be going to sleep. Thanks for the guided video.
Amazing i suffered from Labyrinthitis for a few months, then 6 months passed still i got dizzy when i tilted my head forward, i just literally went upstairs to do this manoeuvre, i feel better!! thank you so so much i even heard 1 of the crystals crackle lol
NOBODY who never had a severe vertigo can understand that this is a state which if it stays longer or even forever finally would drive you into suicide because you cannot escape it, night or day, eyes open or closed. You cannot do anything except suffering in this state. Such manoeuvres really save lifes.
how do you know which ear? i've been suffering from constant dizziness for 12 years! i've looked online for a cause. they only talk about "vertigo." I DON'T HAVE VERTIGO! i went to many damned doctors - NO ONE EVER MENTIONED THIS CONDITION! one doctor told me displaced bone fragments entering the ear canal could cause this. is that what "POSTERIOR canal BPPV" is? a catscan was done i revealed no bone fragments in either ear. can POSTERIOR canal BPPV be detected through a catscan? and the CONSTANT dizziness continues. the severity of the dizziness varies only in intensity but NEVER goes away except when i'm asleep. i've had several MRIs scheduled but they always fall threw mainly because i'm too dizzy to lie still long enough for the MRI. the entire medical profession has screwed me for 12 YEARS denying much needed medical care. they just don't know what the hell they're doing and they don't give a damn! I'VE SCREAMED ONLINE FOR YEARS - I NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION - AND NO ONE GIVES A DAMN!
I totally agree the vertigo symptom is like you got dropped into the hell and you'd rather suicide to get away from such a sick! Luckily i know this solution from a friend 4 years ago when my 3rd vertigo continued over 1 week, otherwise I died! God bless everyone!
I just stumbled on this video after experiencing such a severe dizziness. I had taken 2 different blood tonic because I felt the dizziness was as a result of shortage of blood. However, my symptoms persisted and I was worried. After trying this therapy, my dizziness disappeared. Thank you for sharing this.
Omg, I tried this right after watching this video and it's much better now. It's not completely gone but I'm sure if I do a few more it'll be gone. Thank you!
This works 100000%. I thought i had a neurological issue as i suddenly started feeling extremely dizzy and sick and couldn't go about my day. I noticed it was worse when lying down ready to sleep especially when i turned my head to the right. A little search on google brought me here. Did this every 30 mins (4 times altogether) on day one. Day two (3 times) and it was gone. So i cancelled my appointment with the neurologist 😂.
I woke up with sudden severe vertigo for the first time in my life the other day. My partner helped me to perform this procedure. We did it twice in a row, and it worked to remove the worst of it, thank goodness. If it doesn't work starting to one side, try it once more. If it still doesn't work try it on the other side. The nausea slowly went away after a few hours. 24 hours later I'm still mildly dizzy at times, but it seems to be slowly improving (I read that being a little nauseous/dizzy even after the procedure for a couple days is normal).
I had heart surgery and was in the hospital for 8 months and I started getting the dizzy spells especially when I layered down the dr. Told me I had vertigo. I tried this manner so far I noticed a difference. ❤❤❤
I was just puking lots today 😢 and saw a nurse to help. Some Cerq and gravol. My ear was killing me again and could feel the gravol wearing off. Tried this method and could literally feel something moving slowly in my ear. When I sat up that pain and sensation went away. 😮 thanks so much for the informational video
Earlier this morning I was feeling like a cold bowl of soggy cereal. Then, I discovered this video, did the maneuvers, and now I’m feeling like a hot cup of New England clam chowder
@@estelasullivan3949don't be a big baby, you do this lying in bed, nothing bad is going to happen, worst case you feel dizzy and throw up, just lay still until it passes. Afterwards you will feel amazing.
@@estelasullivan3949Don't be afraid, or ask a docter or friend to stay with you. I did it so many times, always aline. It always is so easy and such a relieve. Did you already did it or do you still suffer ? Realy no need. If to scared please contact your doctor and ask for / to assist with the Epley maneuver.
This really helped a family member. Doing the exercise made him very nauseated and he vomited right after but it also fixed the dizzies and they haven't come back yet after a few days so looking good. He only had to do it ONE time.
I had an vertigo attack last Monday again since a long time. From then on, I had the worst week ever.. I had multiple panick attacks because the dizzy feeling had me going crazy and a few times I almost called the GP (I don't know if this is the correct term as I am Dutch haha) but I was ready to get myself in a hospital bed basically because I couldn't stand the feelings I was havong.. I watched a lot of video's about BPPV and Menieres disease and came across this video. I was very very scared to do this manouver and the first few attempts I tried yesterday I gave up immediately because I couldn't stand the vertigo happening again. After reading a lot of the comments I decided to try it again this afternoon.. I did it around 3 or 4 times in a row to find the right ear. When I started on my right side, nothing would happen but when I started left, once I turned to my right side the vertigo would come again. I held it until the vertigo subsided and laid there for a minute. The last time the vertigo was very bad on that side and I felt even worse after than I did before I tried the manouver. Another few panic attacks later and being really scared I made it even worse, I tried it again just before dinner time. There was no vertigo on both sides, but ever since I did it the last time I have been feeling more myself again. I am still very woozy and floaty/dizzy, but the stuffed feeling in my left ear has disappeared, as is the tinnitus. I feel more energized and can do more around the house than just sitting on my couch and watch Netflix. So for everyone who is scared to do it, I was aswell, but it has given me a lot of confidence that if I would get vertigo again, I don't have to suffer for a long time and can "just" do the epley manouver. For everyone wondering, I did not see a doctor yet, I have an appointment this Monday, so I decided to do this alone, without supervision and my doctor showing it to me first. 🫣
Update; I am now going from feeling good to feeling horrible back and forth. I keep trying to do the epley manouver but not a lot of vertigo is happening anymore so maybe I should stop now and just let it do it's thing.. Maybe my anxiety is making it bigger than it actually is? Because I've heard that a symptom of anxiety is also dizzynes...
Thank you. This really worked for me. Also relieved pressure in my ears and reduced my tinnitus. I now use olive oil ear drops every week and do this exercise before and after swimming 👍
IT WORKED!!!! Omg I've always. been hesitant of these RUclips hacks but I can't believe it actually worked. I was suffering for 3 days staright not knowing I could get rid of it in literally 5 mins
Works! Thank you! I thought I was severely dehydration and drunk 8 bottles of water and still the vertigo would not subside. I Googled and RUclipsd Canalith and this video pops up. I followed this instructions in this video and it works! Thanks again! 🥺😢❤
Lol, I just have this vertigo last night. I am holding my phone while listening and looking at your video with my whole world circling around and my eyes twitching.
Yeah, if you have vertigo and bad headaches, and you try this and it makes you feel worse, recognize this is the diagnosis doctors always make. I had seven doctors of one kind or another ignore what I described for two months before insisting on a CT scan that showed a brain tumor. My PCP diagnosed two other patients in his practice immediately afterwards with brain tumors, also, which were being missed.
@@michaeldiesel3688 Nothing to be sorry about. Couple decades prior, it would have killed me. I passed ten years since the surgery a couple weeks ago, I'll never recover to more than about 85%, but it beats the alternative. My point is, doctors usually jump to the "common" diagnosis. If that isn't it, twist some arms to dig deeper.
@@keithgraham9547 As a woman, it's even worse. I didn't believe it until experienced it myself. I spent three years telling a doctor my shoulder was hurting and I was losing mobility while he told me I was just getting older and experiencing normal age-related arthritis. I switched to another doctor (who happened to be female) and reported my complaint to which she replied, "Would you like to have an x-ray done?" Really? I can do that? Not just take another NSAID and accept that I'm gettng old? Sure! Guess what? I had a nice big bone spur caused by the torn rotator cuff that had gone untreated for yearrrrrs.
@@Kim.Miller I had a dermatologist look at a place on my right cheek a couple, three years ago. He was cavalier about it, said "not cancer," didn't biopsy it. I didn't care for the guy, went to another dermatologist 15 months later. She said, "Not cancer, but we'll biopsy it." A week later I got the call, "Are you sitting down in private? The doctor would like to talk to you..." Two weeks later, a surgeon cut out a hole in my right cheek about 2/3 the size and half the depth of a deck of cards. If the first guy had done his job, it would have been half that size, or less. The very nice plastic surgeon lady did a nice job, but at the one-week checkup after debriding the area, she said, "Oops. Sorry about that." Twice. Not want you want to hear from your plastic surgeon. I have what plastic surgeons technically call a "stupid face." Apparently, having "half a face-lift," it helps if you have saggy skin. Since I don't, blood flow was reduced because she had to stretch the skin so much. At the two-week checkup, she and the nurse said, "That looks great! What happened??" She was expecting to do a skin graft. I'd started taking NMN about eight weeks prior. I can't swear that's what did it, but I believe that and some other supplements improved blood flow that kept the skin from dying.

Where are the 3 crystals that fall out of whack? Swear it was explained to me just like that. This vid is top notch clear and straight to the point! Thank you!
Thank you. I would love it if you would make this same video, but also allowing the video 30 seconds between head turns. It would make it easier to complete the maneuver
I finally have hope , thanks for your video! Im dizzy only when i am moving and when i turn my head to the left. Kindly suggest an exercise for me. Ty and God bless!
This was my only symptom with Covid, It lasted for several weeks. Just an awful Experience. But After doing this manoeuvre it stopped it. But unfortunately months later it’s came back with a vengeance. Hopefully it works for the 2nd time🙏🏾
I've suffered from vertigo post ear infection and then recurrent ear infections and mild vertigo on waking up in morning or when laying down and changing sides, had no symptoms in last 6/7 years other then slight nausea and dizzyness when driving, these menouveres helped, came down with covid 4 days ago, recoverd quick yesterday start .getting vertigo and throwing up and nausea. Will have to do these manovers again. I think this might be a theme now any viral infection and bloody vertigo will make me suffer.
@@joyridesham wow. What you described is very similar to my experiences. I keep getting reoccurring ear infections. Which triggers off my vertigo or viral infection. I think this is a regular theme for me too. Just tested positive for covid again for the second time 4 days ago 😩. Thankfully my vertigo isn’t as bad as the first time round. Wishing you Good luck with your health. I do think this manoeuvre is helpfulx
@@anonymousperson8739 are you better? Woke up first time ever and have this now dizziness and nausea especially head tilted to side but just standing or looking at phone makes me dizzy and feel nausea I'm not sure what to do I'm scared ...
Hi I'm experiencing the same thing right the non stopping dizzynes and feeling ill .I want to when you're doing this process are you still gonna feel dizzy/vertigo ??coz I wanna try this but I'm afraid of seeing the walls move again
@@GoitseOnah-qr7gx yes you will get dizzy when doing it depend on what side ear is affect. But if you can go thur it and hold it for 30-60secs you will feel better. This is my second day without any dizziness or headaches. I woke up fine got out of bed like normal. I feel really good.
I wanted to post another small comment. I watched another video of this issue and a lot of people, including myself currently, are dealing with post epley correction residual dizziness. In my opinion this is actually worse than vertigo itself. And it can take a while for this to get better. But I do feel that this should be addressed in future videos dealing with the epley maneuver because a lot of people are dealing with this, myself included.
@@AmmaRNaR not sure if you are asking me this question or not. My vertigo symptoms are gone and I have not had any more spinning sensation episodes. I have been dealing with post residual dizziness which is feeling off balance and like my head is feeling like it is being pulled in different directions. This feeling is starting to disappear as well so it is slowly getting better. I am still being careful how I move my head around.
@@vernonson66 Thanks for answering. Yes i was asking about the post epley correction residual dizziness. I had it now and it been a month and im worried about it 😭 but why u still careful about your head after 8 months? you give me hope! Thanks!!
Awesome, I had learned Russian in 1965... USAF Translater/transcriber from Northern Japan, during the Vietnam War. I was able to read and understand quite easily.... then read the English translation. Thank you.
@@jimbertzyk1661 Я честно удивлён что за 50 с лишним лет язык не забылся! Потому что я лично забыл немецкий за 10 лет отсутствия практики, сейчас с трудом читаю, про речь можно даже не вспоминать!
I just wanted to make a hopefully brief comment or 2. After suffering from a spinning sensation last night, I decided to try the epley maneuver again today since it appears that I do actually still have bppv. I started with the left side first and had a mild spinning reaction but not much. I went ahead and completed the maneuver with no more reaction. After 5 minutes I decided to do the right side and I had a major spinning sensation and reaction to the right side. I’m guessing I was treating the wrong ear. The spinning only lasted for a couple of seconds but it was intense but I stayed at it. After the spinning totally stopped, I went to the left ear but nothing happened. After 30 seconds I went to complete the procedure by turning to the left side and looking down and once again I had a major reaction for about 6-8 seconds and then it slowed down and stopped. I will probably do this maneuver again for another day or 2 and see what happens and I’m hoping to get better with my vertigo symptoms.
@@momonem5375 I am still feeling off balance and it is bothering me. Sometimes it is worse than other times. I almost took myself to the emergency room last night where I live because my head was feeling very heavy. But I went to bed and was able to sleep well despite this. I have heard that some people actually feel worse after having a successful epley maneuver session before they start feeling better but I don't know if that is the case for me or not. Maybe something is still repairing itself in my ear canals but again I don't know. I'm not feeling as bad right now but I am trying to be careful. I'm hoping this will start feeling better in a day or two.
@@lisaatansio4775 unfortunately no I don’t feel any better after my last few times doing the epley maneuver. I just tried it again the other day and I am not going to mess with it anymore. The past few times I’ve had no reaction and I do honestly feel worse now. I don’t think I have bppv anymore. I’m thinking I have persistent positional posteral dizziness. I probably spelled one of those p words wrong but my head feels constantly heavy and way unbalanced all the time. I’m going to see an ent on august 20th but until then I just have to suffer and endure this misery. With all that being said, you might have better success with the epley maneuver and I truly hope you do if you still plan on trying it. The epley maneuver doesn’t work for everyone all the time and I’m one of the those people. I wish you the best with your issues.
Interesting: Superoxide dismutase: an enzymic function for erythrocuprein (hemocuprein), 1969 Superoxide dismutase is an important enzyme responsible for adrenal conversions among many things. This enzyme contains and needs copper. Also turns out that levels are low in bppv: Serum levels of superoxide dismutases in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, 2020 Reduced serum levels of SOD were associated with higher risk of BPPV and BPPV recurrence events. Also, superoxide dismutase is significantly lower in depression, and is raised after antidepression treatment. SOD might even clear up sinuses. Malondialdehyde levels and superoxide dismutase activity in experimental maxillary sinusitis, 1999 Ie SOD is upregulated when there is threat of sinusitis, but when you don't have copper that's not possible. I took about 7mg of copper today (without dairy or fruits) and my sinuses are clearing up right now
@The Richest Man In Babylon yes me too. Nothing to worry about though I think. I’m still taking minerals including copper during the day, but the cornerstone is EDTA before sleep and in the morning if I wake up early. Takes care of any inflammatory process for me and generally.
I'm right side affected and confused. More than 30-60 seconds into the first 45 degrees of the maneuver, my eyes are still in nystagmus, sometimes violently, and it doesn't calm down for several minutes before proceeding. Should I continue through the next steps, regardless of my nystagmus and nausea or wait until calm? I had previously been instructed to wait until it calmed before proceeding. I wish there was a way to zap and destroy the crystal and stop this crazy thing. It gets kicked up at the worst times. During dental appointments, especially. People think I'm drunk. Embarrassing.
Hello your comment is 4 month old. Scrolling through posts to find some relief from this vertigo feeling. Curious, have you found relief from the excercises? Thanks Hope you feel better soon

i've been suffering from constant dizziness for 12 years! i've looked online for a cause. they only talk about "vertigo." I DON'T HAVE VERTIGO! i went to many damned doctors - NO ONE EVER MENTIONED THIS CONDITION! one doctor told me displaced bone fragments entering the ear canal could cause this. is that what "POSTERIOR canal BPPV" is? a catscan was done i revealed no bone fragments in either ear. can POSTERIOR canal BPPV be detected through a catscan?
and the CONSTANT dizziness continues. the severity of the dizziness varies only in intensity but NEVER goes away except when i'm asleep. i've had several MRIs scheduled but they always fall threw mainly because i'm too dizzy to lie still long enough for the MRI.
the entire medical profession has screwed me for 12 YEARS denying much needed medical care. they just don't know what the hell they're doing and they don't give a damn! I'VE SCREAMED ONLINE FOR YEARS - I NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION - AND NO ONE GIVES A DAMN!
Please answer me, I have multiple sclerosis, will this exercise help?

Hello, if you are reading this comment, you’re probably going through the feelings of this. I just want you to KNOW that it’s ok! You will be okay! The feelings are just that.. feelings and sensations. They are ofc unpleasant but dwelling on them will increase the suffering. Know deep down that some way or another it will pass. Probably after doing what the video is showing.
Regardless, just want you to know that you will be fine. Blessings to you ❤
I really needed to hear this it’s causing me so much anxiety right now I feel like throwing up so bad I feel nauseous anyone else feel this so bad it makes them nauseous
@@raquelmata7698 yes feeling nauseous is normal and common. just know that the anxiety is separate from the vertigo, you can actually feel vertigo and not feel anxious, the way to do this is that you have unshaken trust and faith that you will get through this. You WILL recover but give yourself time and be patient with yourself. Try the maneuver, once for at least 2 days.
That’s very sweet thank you and it did pass as you said. ❤️
This is sweet
Thank you for these wonderful words
Love to hear this from you I really suffering from this vertigo 8 months Ago and then now having it also
Thank you so much. 😭 I have been dizzy for 3 1/2 months. 24/7. No relief. I started googling all kinds of things and didn’t have the symptoms of any of the diseases like heart disease, etc. I saw this and did it, and it work immediately. I can’t even tell you what it’s like to finally get off the carnival ride after months of suffering. ❤
Hi i have been facing dizziness from past 9 months it's for 24 hours in a day. Did it work for you?
I have the same problem, I knew it was bppv and got the first treatment felt fine, but after a week I think it fall back again, causing me constant dizziness, do you have the dizziness in your head all the time even with moving much?
@@reenadsouza6273same problem. All the time. When i am in Hunger it triggers more
@@reenadsouza6273 same! it's almost a year. 24hrs dizziness, nonstop and i am just 16 years old :((
@@zariyahisla1181 so sorry that you are also going through this. Hope you get well soon
I love the graphic here, displaying what is happening to the crystal during the procedure. Thanks for this unique video.
Was in a car accident a month ago & have had random dizzy spells ever since then. Went to the doctor multiple times was finally told I need to see a neurologist or a specialist. Just did this & it completely fixed me. Cannot tell you how much I appreciate the help!
A couple of years ago I was struck with severe dizziness. Tried to wait it out to see if it would go away, never did. Made an appt with an ENT and they did a boat load of tests only to be rudely told by a nurse that there was nothing they could find and they made an appt for me with a Neurologist. In the meantime I'm freaking out thinking that I've got a brain tumor or something. My husband told me to contact a Chiropractor. She saved my life. Did the epley maneuver and I felt like a whole new person after dealing with it for months and also, my back has never felt better lol
@@Ldybug102070so happy you found something that works and got a great outcome!
I’m sorry that you experienced that-I’m a med student and I just learned about this, so I wanted to learn how to perform the maneuver. Hopefully I can use this info to help people with similar problems in the future!
@@SteveKilgore27 Thank you for wanting to help. It's terrible.
I no longer get dizzy spells. Ever since I removed my eye tooth and drained my mucus from my head and neck.
This is not a permanent fix?
I have never written this on a youtube video but you can't begin to understand how greatfull I am for this video.
Wow I’m shocked how well this worked. For me it took a few tries to fully go away but I noticed immediately how I was feeling less and less dizzy. And now I don’t get dizzy at all anymore. I literally just woke up a few days ago and got supper dizzy randomly, whenever I would move my head a certain way. I didn’t even know what was going on with me until I came across this video. Thank you so much!
How many times did you do this in one day? And for how long
@@Grimmjow19872
one time each day before sleeping,
2 minute each position, and 5 minute the last position; 30 minutes/1 hour seat without move
Normally, it take 3 weeks to recovery
If you want more try each days, wait 3 hours between each
@@Grimmjow19872
If you have otoliths, you may have a nigthalamus
The solution is the rotary chair.
Every day 20 times on each side little by little until there is no more oscillation
5 rounds, we fix a point eyes open, the eye should no longer vibrate
It takes 3 months to heal
How long do you hold each position please
@IM-xz2mp 30 seconds
I did it twice and it worked.
this maneuver just cured me, ive been suffering for almost 3 weeks.
Me too! Dizzy for a week, made it, and I feel good! But after epley...next 2 hours were horrible..like I'd been drunk XD
I was so dizzy and off balance for weeks, I did this and it just went away! Thank you so much, I had no idea. So grateful
How about now? It’s still gone?
How many times u did this maneuver
yes pls ?@@hiddenblossombeauty
Were you throwing up afterwards?
My partner had sudden onset vertigo for first time with a lot of vomiting with any head movement. Went to urgent care got a definite diagnosis. I did this maneuver at home him………and it worked! Thank you sooooo much for this video. Vertigo is horrible😞. Thank you so much 😊
DOES Vertigo come back?
@@jackiebourg6869 It can come back, or linger to a lesser degree. Doing the Epley maneuver helps if it is lingering or comes back. No harm in doing it daily if you need to.
How many times doing this exercise
@@chjayanth3684 3 in maximum.... a day....if doesnt work keep repeat it on the next day...
Remember sleep with 2 pillows...
Many people don't understand that vertigo it's one of the most horrible things to ever exist. Because the effects don't just go away when it stops, you feel like vomiting you get the cold sweats in the shakes for at least 10 to 15 minutes after. So what happens all the time you'll be feeling like that constantly and you'll never want to move at all.
I came from school n my mom was feeling dizzy i said ive learned about the fluid in bio book so i direct searched in yt n found this vid i did this therapy to my mom n shes feeling so good now
...thanks
Thank you so much for this. Last night, everything looked like it was moving, like my walls, and i wanted to throw up. When i did this, i just laid down for a couple minutes, went to sleep, and woke up feeling so much better. Thank you
Did u feel eye twitching or puked after or during
@@austine1858 as far as i remember my eye didnt twitch, and though i didnt throw up, it felt like i was going to, and i had to stumble into the bathroom a couple times
@@caseyo which side did u choose? Does ot matter?
@@austine1858 im not sure, i forgot. From what i know just choose the side in which your symptoms are occuring
I was in a helicopter crash almost 10 years ago. I took a ~58g impact to my skull and face and the right side of my body. Everything healed up and I'm mostly ok now. While I was in the hospital, I noticed that every time I looked up and right, the room would start spinning. I didn't know what the problem was but I thought it must be really severe. I was still a long way from even walking, but I thought I would never drive or mountain bike again.
One of my physical therapy sessions ended with the PT doing an Epley maneuver and then me staying mostly still for the rest of the day. It fixed me and I've been fine ever since.
Yeah, the Epley maneuver is good stuff.
Thanks to the RUclips algorithm for bringing this to my feed.
Next up, EMG.
Heartfelt appreciation for putting this video up. I did this Epley maneuver twice and I was back to normal.
Did you throw up afterwards?
@@SincerelyGeetNever after this manoeuvre. (Although i did often in the past with a type of migraine, that went away, now i've visual migraine.) But after this manoeuvre never. And it works evry time for me !
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! This was the only exercise that worked. I felt extremely sick after doing it but woke up feeling back to normal!
oh that made me sick to my stomach. i just done it. let’s see if it works.
Are u feeling totally fine?? Or still feeling fuzzy...???
@@VikashKumar-rz3pv fuzzy and woozy head.
Did you have reoccurrence?
How long did you feel sick after the maneuver? Did you perform it alone or have someone with you in case you fell off the bed?
Thank you so much, been suffering from dizziness for almost 2 months now. I had vertigo 2 months ago and have been through hell. vertigo and dizziness went away right after I repeated this exercise 3 times on each side. God bless!
This exercise is a temporary band-aid, so it will likely return at a later time. I have over 35 years of experience. There is an underlying cause that you have not been properly tested for yet. It is "not" cancer or COVID. If you or anyone else would like proper guidance for free, please send me an email. My email address and a brief summary of what I do are in the "About" section of my RUclips profile. Click on the "E" in the circle next to my comment, click on the big "E" again, and then click the "About" tab.
Did you feel any nausea after doing this? I tried this today and felt extreme vertigo and nausea.
@@rishabh6422 Please read my comment above.
@@rishabh6422 If you're feeling the symptoms doing it then it's probably working. I had to do a similar procedure a few times. Most of the time it didn't do much, but then after one time when I got super dizzy doing it I felt much better the next day. I haven't had an episode in a few years now. The timing is important, gotta go slow when the procedure says to go slow and fast when they go fast.
@@zyeborm it actually worked but came back after 2 weeks. I went to the doc and he performed an di hiplec something procedure to check if I still have that bppv but there wasn't any vertigo. It was fine for almost 4 weeks and then again felt vertigoish. Idk what it is.
I had this dizziness for a few weeks and thought it was just a sinus cold. I went to my doc and he did this procedure on me and didn't tell me what it was or what he was doing, I didn't know what was going on. After He was done putting me through the maneuver I wasn't dizzy anymore. THEN he told me what I had and what he was doing. I found this video and did more research. At 64 I had never heard of it before. It worked for me.
I was feeling dizzy when getting up for over a month. It usually get better on its own, but this time it didn’t. Followed the instructions on this video and it worked. Thank you!
We’re you able to do on your own?
@@deborahanne9793 yep, no problem.
Thank you. I suppose I need to memorize it as in the moment of dizziness, cannot watch the video.
@@deborahanne9793 yep, exactly. You also need to pay attention to the side and angles, and hold enough time on each stance. That is if your dizziness is actually caused by this.
Thank you.
I came back here to say THANK YOU. This actually worked. I am a dancer and vertigo affects my balance. I thought I can never dance just like before. But after following this for the first time, my vertigo never came back again. During the procedure, I felt nauseous, dizzy and I vomited. But it was worth it
Happy for You ! I love to watch dancerd do their craft.!
Girl same. I teach a workshop this Sunday and I thought I ll have to cancel. I did it now and it passed
❤❤❤really
How long did you hold each position please?
@@IM-xz2mp about 30 seconds. But the last position did not last long since I ran for the toilet to vomit. Try it. It was effective
I tried this and it cured my lack of balance the first try. Thanks!!
Had vertigo for a few days (when I laid down or changed sides in sleep I would be very dizzy). Did this and it worked. Slept last night without any episodes. Still feel a bit brain fog and uneasy but it’s a lot better
How long until you feel good?
do vertigo always feels spinning or sometimes like the floor is moving below our feet or a feeling like we are not moving with earth pls can you clear out if this symptoms occur in vertigo bcuz iam fed up
I had my second bought of vertigo, and after five days, my mom talked me into trying this! I watched a bunch of videos on RUclips! This was the best one and the easiest for me to try! I had vertigo for six days and this worked after one try! And that night I slept on two pillows to make sure the crystal didn’t go back in the wrong place!
This saved me last night!! Thank God I remembered I felt dizzy right after rolling over the night before otherwise it would've been hell to diagnose. Tried the maneuver on both sides cuz I wasn't sure which side it was and it worked the second time! Holy crap the puking all day was insane and you saved me! The nausea continued for hours afterwards but slippery elm pill fixed that up good
Thank you. This is my 3rd time experiencing these horrible dizzy spells. Came on suddenly early this morning. The rehab center told me and showed me how to do this maneuver, but I would never remember without your video. It really helped. I thought I was doing it wrong, but after about 5 times, I finally felt better and could sleep. Thanks again. ❤
I feel so much dizziness when laying down. Tried this method, I still felt dizziness and breath difficulty when I opened my eyes. Now it gets better 5 minutes after I get up. Thanks
Should I try this ?
I am alone
@@Alpha-pb7vi It's safe to do it alone
@@lovayu07 thnq so much ✌🏻
After 3 months are you still feeling dizziness?? Or that spinning?
@@Alpha-pb7vi Nope. I never feel vertigo anymore
@@lovayu07 did u get eye twitching when doing the movements? Because I don’t
I’ve been dizzy for over a month, did the maneuver three times, exactly like in the video …. Now I am more dizzy and more nauseous. I will try again later hopefully it will go away. So happy it works for some of you, it’s an awful feeling.

How many times i should repeat
Love the description of what's happening on the inside. This maneuver really works! Thank you

NOBODY who never had a severe vertigo can understand that this is a state which if it stays longer or even forever finally would drive you into suicide because you cannot escape it, night or day, eyes open or closed. You cannot do anything except suffering in this state.

I totally agree the vertigo symptom is like you got dropped into the hell and you'd rather suicide to get away from such a sick! Luckily i know this solution from a friend 4 years ago when my 3rd vertigo continued over 1 week, otherwise I died! God bless everyone!
I just stumbled on this video after experiencing such a severe dizziness. I had taken 2 different blood tonic because I felt the dizziness was as a result of shortage of blood. However, my symptoms persisted and I was worried. After trying this therapy, my dizziness disappeared.
Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you so much. It worked very well for my severe vertigo !
Omg, I tried this right after watching this video and it's much better now. It's not completely gone but I'm sure if I do a few more it'll be gone. Thank you!
This works 100000%. I thought i had a neurological issue as i suddenly started feeling extremely dizzy and sick and couldn't go about my day. I noticed it was worse when lying down ready to sleep especially when i turned my head to the right. A little search on google brought me here.
Did this every 30 mins (4 times altogether) on day one. Day two (3 times) and it was gone.
So i cancelled my appointment with the neurologist 😂.
Thank you.. got relieved from my vertigo after doing this... Thank you so much..
First try it relieved me of vertigo hell - it works. Thank you.
I woke up with sudden severe vertigo for the first time in my life the other day. My partner helped me to perform this procedure. We did it twice in a row, and it worked to remove the worst of it, thank goodness. If it doesn't work starting to one side, try it once more. If it still doesn't work try it on the other side. The nausea slowly went away after a few hours. 24 hours later I'm still mildly dizzy at times, but it seems to be slowly improving (I read that being a little nauseous/dizzy even after the procedure for a couple days is normal).
Very good video to help with vertigo. I tried this and went back to normal. Thank you!!!
I had heart surgery and was in the hospital for 8 months and I started getting the dizzy spells especially when I layered down the dr. Told me I had vertigo. I tried this manner so far I noticed a difference. ❤❤❤
Best explanation so far as to how this works. thanks very much.
Thank you, It worked. I felt dizzy during the process but the dizzness ended ❤
I was just puking lots today 😢 and saw a nurse to help. Some Cerq and gravol. My ear was killing me again and could feel the gravol wearing off. Tried this method and could literally feel something moving slowly in my ear. When I sat up that pain and sensation went away. 😮 thanks so much for the informational video
Earlier this morning I was feeling like a cold bowl of soggy cereal. Then, I discovered this video, did the maneuvers, and now I’m feeling like a hot cup of New England clam chowder
Thank you so much for posting this excellent video. It helped me.
It worked! Thank You So Much. lots of love from India.
An amazing video. I tried it a couple of times today and felt immediate relief. Thank you ❤👍🏼
I had this issue for two weeks. I had three beers yesterday and woke up without the problem. Beer have saved the day once more.
This really helped! I did have severe nausea and eye movement when doing the procedure but by the next day my BPPV was gone.
Wow. Fixed me! Thank you so much!!!
I’m so afraid to do it by myself alone . If something happens to me I can’t get help . It’s my 3rd week of suffering dizziness.Need help
@@estelasullivan3949 did u do it by yourself? How u feeling now?
@@estelasullivan3949don't be a big baby, you do this lying in bed, nothing bad is going to happen, worst case you feel dizzy and throw up, just lay still until it passes. Afterwards you will feel amazing.
@@estelasullivan3949Don't be afraid, or ask a docter or friend to stay with you. I did it so many times, always aline. It always is so easy and such a relieve. Did you already did it or do you still suffer ? Realy no need. If to scared please contact your doctor and ask for / to assist with the Epley maneuver.
This really helped a family member. Doing the exercise made him very nauseated and he vomited right after but it also fixed the dizzies and they haven't come back yet after a few days so looking good. He only had to do it ONE time.
If performed correctly, 80% of patients suffering from BPPV only needs to perform it one time for resolution.
Hands down 🥹 Thank you so much , I was so afraid to lie down but hats off to you , thank you so much ❤️ wish you the best ❤️🌹
I had an vertigo attack last Monday again since a long time. From then on, I had the worst week ever.. I had multiple panick attacks because the dizzy feeling had me going crazy and a few times I almost called the GP (I don't know if this is the correct term as I am Dutch haha) but I was ready to get myself in a hospital bed basically because I couldn't stand the feelings I was havong..
I watched a lot of video's about BPPV and Menieres disease and came across this video.
I was very very scared to do this manouver and the first few attempts I tried yesterday I gave up immediately because I couldn't stand the vertigo happening again. After reading a lot of the comments I decided to try it again this afternoon..
I did it around 3 or 4 times in a row to find the right ear. When I started on my right side, nothing would happen but when I started left, once I turned to my right side the vertigo would come again. I held it until the vertigo subsided and laid there for a minute. The last time the vertigo was very bad on that side and I felt even worse after than I did before I tried the manouver.
Another few panic attacks later and being really scared I made it even worse, I tried it again just before dinner time. There was no vertigo on both sides, but ever since I did it the last time I have been feeling more myself again. I am still very woozy and floaty/dizzy, but the stuffed feeling in my left ear has disappeared, as is the tinnitus. I feel more energized and can do more around the house than just sitting on my couch and watch Netflix.
So for everyone who is scared to do it, I was aswell, but it has given me a lot of confidence that if I would get vertigo again, I don't have to suffer for a long time and can "just" do the epley manouver. For everyone wondering, I did not see a doctor yet, I have an appointment this Monday, so I decided to do this alone, without supervision and my doctor showing it to me first. 🫣
Update; I am now going from feeling good to feeling horrible back and forth. I keep trying to do the epley manouver but not a lot of vertigo is happening anymore so maybe I should stop now and just let it do it's thing.. Maybe my anxiety is making it bigger than it actually is? Because I've heard that a symptom of anxiety is also dizzynes...
Story of my life right after an head on accident car came hit me
Thank you. This really worked for me. Also relieved pressure in my ears and reduced my tinnitus.
I now use olive oil ear drops every week and do this exercise before and after swimming 👍
Do you have sinus
Do you still get dizzy doing this manoeuvre?
@@TinoushGTR it has helped but not cured my dizziness. Good luck!
@@RokhartMusic did you try the half somersault manoeuvre?
The dizziness isn’t caused from your ears. It’s from the inner ear!

IT WORKED!!!! Omg I've always. been hesitant of these RUclips hacks but I can't believe it actually worked. I was suffering for 3 days staright not knowing I could get rid of it in literally 5 mins
I have seen the maneuvre in so many videos...but understood it well in this one...thanks for the informative video....
Works! Thank you! I thought I was severely dehydration and drunk 8 bottles of water and still the vertigo would not subside. I Googled and RUclipsd Canalith and this video pops up. I followed this instructions in this video and it works! Thanks again! 🥺😢❤
thanks ,,this vertigo is terrible ,,i tried the manouvere ,,took about 4 days and 4 attempts but feeling a lot better today
Lol, I just have this vertigo last night. I am holding my phone while listening and looking at your video with my whole world circling around and my eyes twitching.
Yeah, if you have vertigo and bad headaches, and you try this and it makes you feel worse, recognize this is the diagnosis doctors always make. I had seven doctors of one kind or another ignore what I described for two months before insisting on a CT scan that showed a brain tumor.
My PCP diagnosed two other patients in his practice immediately afterwards with brain tumors, also, which were being missed.
So sorry 😞
@@michaeldiesel3688 Nothing to be sorry about. Couple decades prior, it would have killed me. I passed ten years since the surgery a couple weeks ago, I'll never recover to more than about 85%, but it beats the alternative.
My point is, doctors usually jump to the "common" diagnosis. If that isn't it, twist some arms to dig deeper.
@@keithgraham9547 As a woman, it's even worse. I didn't believe it until experienced it myself. I spent three years telling a doctor my shoulder was hurting and I was losing mobility while he told me I was just getting older and experiencing normal age-related arthritis. I switched to another doctor (who happened to be female) and reported my complaint to which she replied, "Would you like to have an x-ray done?" Really? I can do that? Not just take another NSAID and accept that I'm gettng old? Sure! Guess what? I had a nice big bone spur caused by the torn rotator cuff that had gone untreated for yearrrrrs.
@@Kim.Miller I had a dermatologist look at a place on my right cheek a couple, three years ago. He was cavalier about it, said "not cancer," didn't biopsy it.
I didn't care for the guy, went to another dermatologist 15 months later. She said, "Not cancer, but we'll biopsy it." A week later I got the call, "Are you sitting down in private? The doctor would like to talk to you..."
Two weeks later, a surgeon cut out a hole in my right cheek about 2/3 the size and half the depth of a deck of cards. If the first guy had done his job, it would have been half that size, or less.
The very nice plastic surgeon lady did a nice job, but at the one-week checkup after debriding the area, she said, "Oops. Sorry about that." Twice. Not want you want to hear from your plastic surgeon.
I have what plastic surgeons technically call a "stupid face." Apparently, having "half a face-lift," it helps if you have saggy skin. Since I don't, blood flow was reduced because she had to stretch the skin so much.
At the two-week checkup, she and the nurse said, "That looks great! What happened??" She was expecting to do a skin graft.
I'd started taking NMN about eight weeks prior. I can't swear that's what did it, but I believe that and some other supplements improved blood flow that kept the skin from dying.

My physio did this to me. Worked very good
Excellent video! Thank you
Where are the 3 crystals that fall out of whack? Swear it was explained to me just like that. This vid is top notch clear and straight to the point! Thank you!
Thank you. I would love it if you would make this same video, but also allowing the video 30 seconds between head turns. It would make it easier to complete the maneuver
Thank you so much. Tis is one of the most helpful technique!!
This really works, I'm so grateful 🙏 thank you so much for posting this video
I finally have hope , thanks for your video! Im dizzy only when i am moving and when i turn my head to the left. Kindly suggest an exercise for me. Ty and God bless!
Why English sub titles while speaking in English. This make video to audio.
Doctor recommend this, has helped a lot. 😊
When is the best time to do these? Before bed or when you wake up. Great video thank you
In the morning & then keep your head upright for the rest of the day.
Works excellent have suffered this on occasions for many years very quickly resolves the problem.
This was my only symptom with Covid, It lasted for several weeks. Just an awful Experience. But After doing this manoeuvre it stopped it. But unfortunately months later it’s came back with a vengeance. Hopefully it works for the 2nd time🙏🏾
I've suffered from vertigo post ear infection and then recurrent ear infections and mild vertigo on waking up in morning or when laying down and changing sides, had no symptoms in last 6/7 years other then slight nausea and dizzyness when driving, these menouveres helped, came down with covid 4 days ago, recoverd quick yesterday start .getting vertigo and throwing up and nausea. Will have to do these manovers again. I think this might be a theme now any viral infection and bloody vertigo will make me suffer.
@@joyridesham wow. What you described is very similar to my experiences. I keep getting reoccurring ear infections. Which triggers off my vertigo or viral infection. I think this is a regular theme for me too. Just tested positive for covid again for the second time 4 days ago 😩. Thankfully my vertigo isn’t as bad as the first time round. Wishing you Good luck with your health. I do think this manoeuvre is helpfulx

Yes you will feel it when. You will get dizzy on the side your ear is affect
Did you try it ? I did it yesterday morning and today I feel 10x better. I didn’t wake u dizzy

@@GoitseOnah-qr7gx yes you will get dizzy when doing it depend on what side ear is affect. But if you can go thur it and hold it for 30-60secs you will feel better. This is my second day without any dizziness or headaches. I woke up fine got out of bed like normal. I feel really good.
@@GoitseOnah-qr7gx when I did it, it was my left ear that happen the problem. I felt dizzy for about 5 sec or so.

Thank you doctor for this great video..How many times per day we can do this Maneuver..
Only once if it works.
This cured me years ago and I felt so like I was blackout drunk. Never came back so far.
It works! Thank you Dr. Epley!

Thank you for this video! Both the instructions and explanations are succinct! It has worked on me!
Thanks for posting. I had a PT do this w me. And it absolutely works. Ty for posting.
Beautifully explained! Thank you!
Thank you so much!! Worked perfect for me!
I wanted to post another small comment. I watched another video of this issue and a lot of people, including myself currently, are dealing with post epley correction residual dizziness. In my opinion this is actually worse than vertigo itself. And it can take a while for this to get better. But I do feel that this should be addressed in future videos dealing with the epley maneuver because a lot of people are dealing with this, myself included.
Did it gone? Or you still have it?
@@AmmaRNaR not sure if you are asking me this question or not. My vertigo symptoms are gone and I have not had any more spinning sensation episodes. I have been dealing with post residual dizziness which is feeling off balance and like my head is feeling like it is being pulled in different directions. This feeling is starting to disappear as well so it is slowly getting better. I am still being careful how I move my head around.
@@vernonson66 Thanks for answering. Yes i was asking about the post epley correction residual dizziness. I had it now and it been a month and im worried about it 😭 but why u still careful about your head after 8 months? you give me hope! Thanks!!
@@AmmaRNaR Yes i'm worried too and also Yes @vernonson gives us hope! Godspeed
@@AmmaRNaR if you still have spinning you probably do not have bppv. Have you been to a doctor? You may have vestibular neuritis or labrynthitis.
Мне помогло это упражнение с одного раза. Спасибо вам огромное! Очень понятно всё объяснили. Поняла почему именно такие движения нужно делать.
Awesome, I had learned Russian in 1965... USAF
Translater/transcriber from Northern Japan, during the Vietnam War.
I was able to read and understand quite easily....
then read the English translation. Thank you.
@@jimbertzyk1661 Я честно удивлён что за 50 с лишним лет язык не забылся! Потому что я лично забыл немецкий за 10 лет отсутствия практики, сейчас с трудом читаю, про речь можно даже не вспоминать!
This is so complete explanation , thanks for that ear supplement 🙏
Had a severe concussion. Pretty sure I displaced crystals in both ear canals. Had to do this a couple of times but I felt relief immediately.
Feeling much better now🙏❤🥺
I just wanted to make a hopefully brief comment or 2. After suffering from a spinning sensation last night, I decided to try the epley maneuver again today since it appears that I do actually still have bppv. I started with the left side first and had a mild spinning reaction but not much. I went ahead and completed the maneuver with no more reaction. After 5 minutes I decided to do the right side and I had a major spinning sensation and reaction to the right side. I’m guessing I was treating the wrong ear. The spinning only lasted for a couple of seconds but it was intense but I stayed at it. After the spinning totally stopped, I went to the left ear but nothing happened. After 30 seconds I went to complete the procedure by turning to the left side and looking down and once again I had a major reaction for about 6-8 seconds and then it slowed down and stopped. I will probably do this maneuver again for another day or 2 and see what happens and I’m hoping to get better with my vertigo symptoms.
Any update?
@@momonem5375 I am still feeling off balance and it is bothering me. Sometimes it is worse than other times. I almost took myself to the emergency room last night where I live because my head was feeling very heavy. But I went to bed and was able to sleep well despite this. I have heard that some people actually feel worse after having a successful epley maneuver session before they start feeling better but I don't know if that is the case for me or not. Maybe something is still repairing itself in my ear canals but again I don't know. I'm not feeling as bad right now but I am trying to be careful. I'm hoping this will start feeling better in a day or two.
Do you feel better a week later? I've been experiencing vertigo the past 2 days and I'm going to try that manuever.
@@lisaatansio4775 that maneuver worked for me.. I'm now free of the vertigo.. alhamdullah
@@lisaatansio4775 unfortunately no I don’t feel any better after my last few times doing the epley maneuver. I just tried it again the other day and I am not going to mess with it anymore. The past few times I’ve had no reaction and I do honestly feel worse now. I don’t think I have bppv anymore. I’m thinking I have persistent positional posteral dizziness. I probably spelled one of those p words wrong but my head feels constantly heavy and way unbalanced all the time. I’m going to see an ent on august 20th but until then I just have to suffer and endure this misery. With all that being said, you might have better success with the epley maneuver and I truly hope you do if you still plan on trying it. The epley maneuver doesn’t work for everyone all the time and I’m one of the those people. I wish you the best with your issues.
Interesting:
Superoxide dismutase: an enzymic function for erythrocuprein (hemocuprein), 1969
Superoxide dismutase is an important enzyme responsible for adrenal conversions among many things. This enzyme contains and needs copper. Also turns out that levels are low in bppv:
Serum levels of superoxide dismutases in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, 2020
Reduced serum levels of SOD were associated with higher risk of BPPV and BPPV recurrence events.
Also, superoxide dismutase is significantly lower in depression, and is raised after antidepression treatment.
SOD might even clear up sinuses.
Malondialdehyde levels and superoxide dismutase activity in experimental maxillary sinusitis, 1999
Ie SOD is upregulated when there is threat of sinusitis, but when you don't have copper that's not possible. I took about 7mg of copper today (without dairy or fruits) and my sinuses are clearing up right now
@The Richest Man In Babylon yes me too. Nothing to worry about though I think. I’m still taking minerals including copper during the day, but the cornerstone is EDTA before sleep and in the morning if I wake up early. Takes care of any inflammatory process for me and generally.
I'm right side affected and confused. More than 30-60 seconds into the first 45 degrees of the maneuver, my eyes are still in nystagmus, sometimes violently, and it doesn't calm down for several minutes before proceeding. Should I continue through the next steps, regardless of my nystagmus and nausea or wait until calm? I had previously been instructed to wait until it calmed before proceeding. I wish there was a way to zap and destroy the crystal and stop this crazy thing. It gets kicked up at the worst times. During dental appointments, especially. People think I'm drunk. Embarrassing.
Dental procedures are considered to be a possible cause of BPPV. There are some studies suggesting it.
Hello your comment is 4 month old. Scrolling through posts to find some relief from this vertigo feeling. Curious, have you found relief from the excercises? Thanks Hope you feel better soon
