Hello, Back in october of 2012 i had a minor electrical shock in decemeber i kept having these symptoms of constant vertigo. Not so much of the room spinning but that i was atcually moving. I had gone and seen a nuerologist that did a brain MRI . It came back normal ive had 6 EKG s all said my heart was normal. Ive had chest x-rays done that were normal.i do suffer from elevated blood preassure and do take medication for it.. i was wondering if the vertigo and tinitus that happends at least 5 times a week is in any way related to the vertigo. Im not getting any useful information from other doctors. And its been a year already if it is from the shock how long will these symptoms last and what kind of specialists should i go and see??
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Your vertigo needs evaluation, as it has lasted for a long time. You need to consult an ENT surgeon, and a neurologist. The two main causes for recurrent vertigo are related to the ear- BPP (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) and neurological related to brain or cervical spine disease. A normal MRI of brain, however, rules out serious causes for your vertigo. In the meanwhile, you can take betahistine tablets for symptom relief. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
