I've had two episodes of vertigo over the past 20 years. It's the kind of thing you don't forget. The first time I woke up, got out of bed and proceeded to fall on the floor. The dizziness would occur when lying down or getting up, and once and a while if I tilted my head back.
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.
