A member asked:
I've been having severe episodes of dizziness and vertigo about once a week. doctor referred me to a ent doc. any ideas as to what it might be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several things: Episodic vertigo is likely benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (bppv) or meniere's disease. There are other less likely possibilities, but the ENT doc has the knowledge and tools to sort them out.
