Vertigo persists
So... I've had this vertigo every day.
It's about the same as the first day.
Head spin for less than a minute when sitting up. Less than 30 seconds when laying down. No nausea.

When I lay down getting into bed last night I had another bout of vertigo.
It was quite spinny and not unpleasent.
I had the same thing this morning when I sat up again.
It appears to kick in when changing orientation.
Woke up with vertigo this morning.
It was quite bad when I sat up on the edge of the bed. I thought it was funny until I tried to stand up. Sat back down quick.
Took about 30-40 seconds for it to clear. But it did clear.
It's around midday now and it has not returned.
So... I've had a persistent headache for just over a month now. It causes mild nausea. All the time.
I've been to my GP and they sent me for a CT. This revealed that I'd had a bleed in my basal ganglia. It's not an ongoing bleed. The radiologist reports that this is unlikely to be the cause of the headache/nausea though. My GP has put me in the queue for a consult with a neurologist and this will likely result in an MRI.
But this is in the public health system so I'm looking at a few weeks wait. Until then... I have new drugs to manage the nausea and headache.
