I wonder if you experienced some form of trigger event that cause this setback. Did you injure your neck recently ? Have you had a chemical exposure ? Any other health issues recently ?

none at all. but the weird part of it is that i had no symptoms of a concussion when i fell 1 year ago. ive done a lot of research on pcs and with the symptoms im a prime canidate for it. i took 4 different kinds of meds to rule out allergys. had a vision test done to prove i have vertigo,mri of the brain [came back negative, had p.t for vertigo [bbvp] didnt work. they pulled me out of p.t.going to a nureoligist in aug.

i think personally i have cervical vertigo witch is caused by a fall. that would cause my neck to bother me. thats not a symptom of reg. vertigo. but its a conversial decision to make by a dr.my gut feelings are telling me its pcs or cervical vertigo

I've found this a great site for vestibular issues and dizziness.

This is the page for cervicogenic dizziness, but there are so many different forms and reasons for vertigo and dizziness that you may want to check it out as well as some of the others listed.

I am no expert but have you investigated wheter you have a neck in jury? You dont need to have pain in your neck to have e.g. a upper neck injury...
