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. If you are a frequent sufferer of dizziness or vertigo, join the group and find support.

I'm most concerned about how long the dizzy part of the test will last. The whole 90 min? And also, do I have to be in the middle of an episode for this test to be effective? If not, besides the irrigated ear, what else will bring on the nystagmus during the goggle potion of the testing? Still worried about all this, but thank you for posting here!
