Often full recovery may take a few months, and this event may have left you with some otolithic dysfunction. Alternatively, this may have been the initial onset of Meniere's disease. A videonystagmogram will help objectify the symptoms. Vestibular rehab measures should continue.

What if you have a dx of peripheral vestibular dysfunction, yet on what of the ENT notes says Vertigo central in origin. Have had every test known under the sun, only indication is a caloric reduction in the right inner ear and am in vision therapy?
