Crystals, huh? Yeah, it's like having the drunk spins...like sitting in a rowboat. I woke up fine, and 5 minutes later thought there was an earthquake. I feel moderately better, but still have no explanation.
Is it ongoing (e.g. hours or days) of that, or going from fine to spinny-faceplant-projectile-vomiting then back to normal after a brief time? Also, does the position of your head matter impact the symptoms?
In general you should be checked for:
Short "attacks" of faceplant spinning: Menieres.
Ongoing spins (hours/days) that are "walk like you're drunk" but not "too spinny to stand up or stop puking": Labyrinthitis (treat with steroids until the virus goes away)
Spins influenced by head position: positional vertigo. physical therapy to move the crystals
It only started this morning, from severe to now mild. Maybe I slept funny? Compressed a nerve? My body feels fine. Starting to get hungry, and I ate yesterday. I can't explain why I should be dizzy today.
