I was hospitalized for 3 days this past June because at 8AM one morning, while sitting on my computer, I suddenly lost all sense of balance (not spinning), started slow, quickly got worse, was taken by ambulance to ER and eventually admitted. After MRI and tests nothing. Went to PT where they did the Epley maneuver several times. also determined that my eyes were not tracking smoothly.

After 4 PT sessions at the VA and eye and balance and stride exercises, I am pretty much OK but think I will never again have truly "normal" balance.

Best guess is the the tiny,tiny nerve in my right eye that effects balance, isn't talking to me brain anymore.

Get tested and evaluated, then get PT.
