question: I was diagnosed with bppv by my doctor a few months ago. He suggested the Epley manuever but I was unable to do it because it caused pain in my neck to worsen. A chiropractor illiminated the pain in my neck and it helped the vertigo for a liitle while but now the vertigo is 24/7. I am taking Vertifree but it doesn t seem to be helping it caused my dizziness to get worse and caused a mild headache. The company told me to reduce the dosage.but that has not worked either. I also have Mitral Valve prolapse and I am 57 yrs old.
