If either or both of you has had a cold recently, it is most probably due to that.

It is known as benign positional vertigo.
I have had that in my left ear for years and years.
Benadryl might help you very much.
In the mean time, find out where your “trigger” point is
(where you start to get dizzy) and avoid it, especially if you are home alone!

Do you know how that is treated?
Some Docs will put patients on a tilt table, and put them in the position that makes them dizzy.
The theory is there may be some particles lodged there, and they try to get them to move.
Good luck to you both.

That makes quite a lot of sense. My brother-in-law who suffers quite often with vertigo also has ringing in the ears all the time.

I think I’ve heard of this, before. It lodges crystals that form....maybe?

Thanks for the tips. Mine was caused by a a small ear infection and/or a crick in my neck. After a while the ear infection was gone and the “crick” popped. I heard and felt my neck pop back in place. I hope I never have that (vertigo) again.
