Have I got vertigo??

Ring the surgery and get it checked out; it does sound like vertigo to me which I had once about fifteen years ago.

We are descending into this' I don't want to bother the doctor' syndrome and it is not good enough.

Yes, I was going to say blood pressure ElaineI.

Best to get that checked.

DH had this and it was a stroke caused by dangerously high blood pressure. GP over phone diagnosed labyrinthitis. She phoned back 2 days later to check and asked to see him - was just over a year ago - his BP was 250/160 so sent straight to hospital. It was caused by a vertebral artery dissection. Very scary and I wasn't allowed in. Had to hand over clothes at door. Best to get BP checked.

Check out Orthostatic Hypotension travels

As my Dr said when I had similar: with virtigo the room spins while you are still. If it’s you that is giddy then it’s possible something else.

I thought I had Vertigo last summer, very similar to your story. Eventually after a couple of days I phone GP, yep easy diagnosing over the phone!
Thought it Virus not Covid however couple of weeks later same but worse happened.
I was admitted to Hospital with Fast AF.. Told by consultant my "Virtigo" was AF.
So don't leave this please contact GP.

This is how covid started for me. Awful vertigo. Definitely do a test.

Have you done a covid test? as mine started with dizziness like this

Maybe you need your ears syringed travelasfar.
Dh was the same and his ears needed to be cleared,all good so far.

I had these symptoms too last Autumn. Turned out to be viral. They went away after about 10 days. Hope you feel better soon.

Labyrinthitis perhaps.
It can be caused by a virus/inner ear infection or be connected to low blood pressure or even any medication you are on.
Best to get it checked out.

It sounds like vertigo. It is a symptom so you need to consider the cause.
Google Vertigo and you will see the likely causes.
Usually, Inner Ear problems or neck spinal problem causing blood flow problems to head.
I have had it for several week! So good luck!
