hey,

been diagnosed with mild BPPV, going to do epley manoevre on saturday with the consultant, he says 75% chance of instant cure.

been reading that if that doesnt work they may do epley again or prescribe brandt daroff excercises that i can do myself at home.

I am starting a job which requires that I am not dizzy a week on monday, so getting a little stressed about what happens if epley doesnt work first time, will they try again immediately, or is there a big delay before they will try again or prescribe home exercises.

whats the normal form here?

regards
