Took Meclizine for that bout.
The second wasn't as bad, but it lasted for months, and stopped as quickly as it appeared. There was an description on an online "web MD" site that gives a good description and diagnosis/prognosis for Benign Vertigo. Good luck.
That's what I'm taking.I'm now to the point of having the feeling of when you go out on a boat the first day of the season.As the day goes on I get a headache that lasts all day.Driving around a few miles now and it's ok but no long drives or rides.Walked to the wreck that washed up on Newcomb Hollow Beach in Wellfleet last month and appx. a mile further and back.Had to take a tylynol [never take the stuff] when I got home.I hate f*****g headaches.
