Hi Jane, Coincidentally, my husband is having vertigo and nausea tonight. A few weeks ago he went through this as well. He suffered horribly! So I've been investigating the Epley Manoeuvre and otoliths and hope he can try it when he is ready. (Hard to do much for a man in the middle of misery: he doesn't want to do/try anything at the moment) I've only been able to apply some homeopathics behind his ear that don't seem to be doing much, though tonight isn't quite as bad as last time.
When he's better, I'm going to see that he does his homework and investigates so this doesn't become a regular thing.
