Question 1

normal for vertigo? off balance, throbbing head with no pain, stiff neck, blurry vision off and on and i get a swaying sensation when i walk.

Accepted Answer

Most of the symptoms: are "normal" for vertigo, but Vertigo itself isn't "normal'.   I don't usually find "stiff neck" as a symptom unless it's your body's natural attempt to lessen the symptoms.  My general rule of thumb is that it should lessen in 3 days and be gone in a week or so.  Meds help ease the symptoms.  If you get nausea or vomiting, are falling or have numbness, tingling or weakness anywhere, get help!
