A member asked:
Is it possible for coffee to cause or exacerbate vertigo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If the vertigo is of central origin, ( brain stem), caffeinated coffee, because it may stimulate the CNS (brain) may aggravate the condition. If the origin of the vertigo is peripheral (inner ear) coffee may still aggravate the condition because the inner ear is sending electrical stimuli to the brain stem.
