I was diagnosed with bppv 6 years ago.it finally settled down for like 8 months without vertigo. now i've had it 6 times in the last 2 weeks? why?

Recurrence is common: There is about a 50% recurrence rate of this problem. How did you resolve the first bout? Were you given the Brandt-Daroff maneuvers to perform as daily exercises or did you have an Epley maneuver done or was there some other treatment? You can simply repeat whatever you did in the first place.
