Did you have an EMG?

[IslandHoney]

I had an EEG Vetegnc. All the tests I have taken have been normal. Just saw another neurologist and he said it's psychological.

IslandHoney, are you seeking psych treatment? Even if that's not the root cause of your issues, living in pain and uncertainty certainly is difficult to handle!

[IslandHoney]

Yes, I am Charolastra00. But it has not helped.

An EMG is different than an EEG. An EMG can help rule out things like ALS and MG.

[IslandHoney]

I don't have any of those symptoms.

Take vitamin D3 and K2 and Magnesium - I would also suggest B-Complex but especially B1 - there is a fast ramp up form called benfotiamine.

Vertigo 23X more likely with low vitamin D, perhaps Calcium in ear

Get some hair mineral testing and then work on getting back in balance.

I have had BPPV twice. Each time I had no luck with eply procedures and just let it run its course until it subsided. Each time it was in the winter between mid November and mid December. Each of these times of the year are of course when Vitamin D (supplied from the Sun) was at its lowest in my location. I believe the vitamin D link is real. See more here and noticed that in this study Vitamin D stopped vertigo episodes:

Vitamin D deficiency and benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo. - PubMed - NCBI

Per that report the following is reported:

"Vertigo attacks did not recur after supplementation with vitamin D"

I'm just trying to help you others as vertigo due to BPPV is an aweful and quite terrifying feeling that causes massive desperation. But the reality is that you can get better - just increase that Vitamin D and in the interim try not to move your head as much as possible.

Best wishes to you.
