You are probably experiencing Verdigo . It is possible that one of your meds are causing the side effect of Vertigo. I’ve been on a medication that also made me feel that way in the past.

Sit down when you feel that. Take a few calming breaths and focus on the thought: I am in control here!

See if that works for you. And when you are no longer spinning, then you might want to get a message to your neurologist to explain what happened.

Sometimes, as I found out with the sudden dizziness triggered falls (while walking across a room) that I had earlier this year, you will find out after an adjustment made by your neurologist (as I did) that the spinning has nothing to do with epilepsy but rather anxiety. And once I knew that the trigger was extreme negative emotions, I was in control and the unexpected random dizziness was no longer random and was also easy to get rid of with just a pause and take a breath for a short time. And within a few days, they were not happening any more because my brain knew that I knew what the trigger was.

In my case, I found after I stopped and closed my eyes and took a slow calming breath before reacting in any way, that it was a strong negative emotion that was the trigger. And I was lucky at the time that I was hooked up to an ambulatory EEG that confirmed that it had no EEG activity and more importantly (in terms of why I was hooked up to the ambulatory EEG) that it confirmed that I had no nocturnal seizures during the 48 hour time period thus confirming that I was completely seizure free. This confirmed that I was in a long-term seizure free state for over a year. In 21 days, I will be up to 1 and a half years of being seizure free.

NOTE: However, I am an unusual epileptic because I sustained 17 years of brain damage because it took that long between when my epilepsy came out of hibernation (August 1980) and when I saw a neurologist and was identified as being an epileptic (after results were examined from my first ambulatory EEG in October 1997), and I was started on Tegretol. I got even more severe brain damage (June 2003 - January 2005), but I should have died many times over during that time frame if not for miracles performed by God.

Okay, because my meds do that to me a lot, i get dizzy and even tip over sometimes because i cant walk straight, but i also throw up a lot, headaches. I usually just sleep the day away with my trusty bucket 🤣 its normally when my meds change or i have a problem with them but lately its been happening randomly, im overdue for an appointment though, sorry i couldnt help. It could be similar to what happens to me just not as strong 🤷🏼‍♀️ i just asked a question about this and got several answers if you wanna check it out.

I'm pretty sure your meant to either lay down or take a seat un till it passes.

my pop told me to sit down. i'm glad somebody knows these things. we'll be ok, one day. let GOD take the wheel.
