> I had this happen to me too. But I was never told it was from a virus. I woke up one night and if I turned my head the world was spinning around. Crawled to the bathroom in the morning and husband took me to the ER. The doctor shined a light in my eyes and said yup it's vertigo. They could tell by the way my eyes reacted. Gave me a shot of Ativan 2mg and a prescriptionn for antivert. It took a few days and it gradually went away. But I was never the same again. That's when I had to start Antidespressants. And they don't work for me. But at least I'm not dizzy anymore. Fondly, Phillipa
Phillipa, that's a very strange story.Are you saying that started a depression for you?
What the heck was in that 'antivert' prescription??
Or do you think there's a connection between the vertigo itself and the depression?
