A member asked:

5 months of vestibular neuritis, brain mri ok. i am still getting dizzy and foggy, despite 1 month of therapy is it normal? no hearing loss!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Clarification: You do NOT have "vestibular neuritis", as this is a short-term infection, lasting maybe 2-3 weeks. Would suggest you have otological testing to see if you have Meniere's, otolithic dysfnctn such as benign positional vertigo, or even perilymphatic or endolympatic fistula. See otolaryngologist.
