Is Vertigo Curable?
My mum aged 84 has vertigo. How can she tell if it is just vertigo or the result of a mini stroke. She has had a CT scan and one doctor has told her she may have had a stroke at some stage. Would a neurologist visit be the best referral? Is vertigo curable?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to benign paroxismal vertigo.
I suggest using Meclizine hydrochloride three times a day for relieve.
I also suggest to avoid salt in the diet.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
