Dizziness & Vertigo Support Group
Dizziness is the sensation of instability. Vertigo refers to dizziness with a sensation of motion. Vertigo is more likely than other types of dizziness to be associated with nausea, vomiting, or double vision, to occur even when lying down, and to feel better with the eyes closed.

Hello,
i have severe anxiety. I've had vertigo for about two months, and have to get an eppley maneuver tomorrow. I'm so scared. I also had a squiggly line in my right eye today. I had this occur in 2004 and 2015, and went to the eye dr each time. They said it was an ocular migraine, but nothing to worry about.
has anybody had any experience with an eppley or ocular migraine? I'm imagining all kinds of scary things.
any advice or input will be much appreciated.
I have had the eppley maneuver a few times. Each movement does make you dizzy as the crystals move and the dizziness lasts about 15 seconds. I know it's scary because the last thing we want to do is to feel more dizzy but we have to try everything until we find something that works. Hang in there and don't be afraid.
Let us know how it goes and if it helps you.
