I'm a PT here in MA, I actually saw one earlier for vertigo-like symptoms. Have you ever heard of Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo? BPPV. Simply put, with any positional changes (head most of the time) the balance centre of your body goes out of whack, thus causing dizziness/nausea. And yes, those crystals, they are real.
Did you ever have an ear infection before? Maybe a fall with loss of consciousness? Get checked as those may play a part. The inner ear is our balance centre, so all balance of the body is controlled there (somewhat). If it's been infected or anything like that, vertigo-like Sx may be felt.
Don't take my word for it but get checked, if it needs be, referred to a Neurologist for further testing.
Look up Brandt-Daroff exercises for vertigo, it might help. But NEVER beats seeing a pro, rather than self-treating.
Message if you have any questions.
