37yo with chronic migraines and new dx of BPPV. Why would I have BPPV at such a young age w/o hx of head trauma/stroke?


Posted by auntblondie

I have chronic migraines and was recently dx with BPPV by my neurologist.  We are currently tx migraines reactively rather than preventative with medication d/t severe side effects.  I do take magnesium and B2 (both recommended by my neurologist).  My question is this:  I am only 37 yo.  Why would I have BPPV at such a young age?  No hx of head trauma/stroke etc.  MRI and MRI-v normal.  Little afraid of what else they'll find.  I think going to a neurologist is like going to a good auto mechanic; they'll always find something wrong!!
