Hi, My wife 60 year old complaining of head reeling sensation since last night. She does not have BP or diabetics. She has dust allergy and took Claritol 10 mg dose one per day last 2 days. The reeling sensation occurs when the head is turned sideways. Please advise. Thanks, Umamaheswara Rao
Hello, The description you present sounds somewhat similar to what someone might complain of who had BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO (BPP).  This is when the movement of the HEAD whether by itself entirely or as it changes along with body posture from lying to standing or sitting.  This condition can be treated using BRANDT-DAROFF exercises which train the brain to not pay so much attention to these head movements that can make the person feel "dizzy" or as if they were in movement.  There are YouTube videos that give the STEP-BY-STEP instructions on how to produce this maneuver which will help immensely with your symptoms if in fact you can see a neurologist or ENT specialist who can test you for BPPV. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
