    I suddenly started having vertigo a week ago. Just tried this yesterday and after the first time I was about 80% better. Did a second round right before bed and woke up without any dizziness. I’m well into my day and have not had any issues. Thank you!!

    This has to be the craziest sh*t I have ever seen in medicine. And I mean that with the utmost respect. Awesome video, as always, gentlemen.

    I have horizon left bppv. My symptoms getting worse last 2 weeks. I searched around and I found I have left bppv. I discovered that Epley maneuver get rid of vertigo. So I brace myself doing it alone by myself. And let me tell you, I was vomiting three times while doing the first round. I could not compete the routine at all. I was empty on my stomach so that help little with vomiting. I have bags by my bed for vomiting. It sooo awful feeling. But I managed to complete the Epley maneuver routine as I keep telling myself that I needed to do this. And it did get rid my lef bppv. I was 80% felt better. No more violently head spinning for me. I do feel slightly dizzy when looking down and up. I needed to do this Epley excerise twice daily for 7-10 days. There 3 more others maneuver. I will need to take a look as I still feel dizzy by looking up and down. I think one of other maneuver will cure vertical vertigo.

    I just wish my teacher would be as good as you guys are! ive been learning more on the fuc** youtube than in my classes! Good work guys
  • @dtheopha
    Excellent and thorough explanation. Thanks very much for making it
  • Great explanation, thanks you. Only difference that I note is the head extension to 30 degrees and rotation to 45 degrees and then hold the position for 2 min due to latent nystagmus + extra 30 sec - Is the order - first ext then rot of the head important to move the crystals or can you do rot before extension?

    Very nicely done explanation of the theory. The line drawing of the semicircular canals with the debris / otolith illustrated in purple was helpful. 💜 I think it important you mentioned that the procedure has a small percentage of converting the posterior canal problem into a lateral semicircular canal problem and that you pointed to the assessment for the lateral semicircular canal problem.

    Thank you so much, I did this and my symptoms seem to have disappeared completely, fantastic. I was able to do it completely by myself, too. Edit: so my symptoms came back and I had to do the maneuver again this morning, but so far today I've had no episodes. I believe that looking down, or lying back, caused my symptoms to reappear, maybe.

    Epley worked very well on my wife. We've done it maybe once a day for some time, and she felted its benefits.

Thank you for your help.
