What Causes Vertigo?
I have severe vertigo. It's like a TV screen is fuzzed up and moving down in strips. I've had this twice before about a year ago and ended up going to the ER, but by the time I sw a doctor the symptoms went away. The dizziness last for about an hour. The servere dizziness (baraly can walk and legs feel fatigue). My blood work in the ER the 2 times showed low potassium. Could the low potessiom cause it? I already had a CT scan or MRI while in the ER one time and it showed nothing.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern look the most common cause to vertigo is low blood supply to the tympanic membrane and infection of tympanic membrane and this need to be ruled out first, and other causes are there like psychological, central nervous related, with the proper treatment this comes around soon, take care and have a nice day,
