Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.

All your symptoms could be due to VERTIGO. The most common cause of vertigo is Otologic (inner ear causes).

The treatment of this condition involves use of Vestibular suppressants like Dimenhydrinate, meclinzine, clonazepam etc or Antihistamine preparations like Betahistine for a period of 10 days will resolve the condition. Avoid sudden and jerky movements of head and neck which will precipitate the condition.

Recurrences of vertigo are prevented by following specific exercises involving the head and neck.

There are many other causes for vertigo for which a detailed evaluation by a Neurophysician is necessary to establish the correct cause.

Hope this information is helpful. Good day
