Three weeks post op and experienced vertigo. Rolled over in bed and the world did three revolutions.

Going to see primary care tomorrow as I am still a little off balance and dizzy.

Called NUT and asked if the 1500 mg of Calcium could be the problem since calcium in the inner ear Fluid is the likely cause of vertigo. NUT said probably not.

Anyone else experiencing vertigo?

It could be dehydration or an issue with your blood pressure too. Are you on BP meds? If so - you may need them adjusted. Glad you're getting checked out.

I'm 2weeks out and experienced vertigo, it was from dehydration, my doctor sent me to the er of the hospital he works out of and got some fluids in me through iv and ran test to make sure everything was ok and I'm home feeling back to my old self

Dehydration and low blood sugar are likely culprits.

I'm almost 6 months out and have been dealing with this for about a month.

For me is not from dehydration, my dr did blood work and so far no word on the results.

It's also not from BP meds.

For me it happens while laying on my left side and I Hate it!! I just want to lay down or roll over without the world spinning. It really messes up staying asleep and getting a good nights rest.

They have exercises to put your equilibrium back on track. I've started them yesterday.

Thanks for the you tube link. Found a simple procedure where you lay across the bed on your back and let your head hang back for 60 seconds, then bring your chin up to your chest for 60 seconds (a second person helps), then set up straight for 60 seconds (do not move head). Very affective for me.

Just went to a Physical Therapist and he performed a much more involved procedure that has left me very dizzy. Going to go back to the simple procedure.

Just performed simple procedure and feel much better.
