Suggest Treatment For Irrational Fear Of Epley Manouver
Hi, I have bbpv, and have had it for four years. I now have an irrational fear of the epley manouver, and as soon as I move my head backwards I trigger the spinning. Have patients ever been knocked prior to having the procedure conducted. I am 38 years of age and have become a shut in, as I am terrified of the spinning.
