yes, you are right it took time, now i am feeling much much better, what i ve notitced is that the anxiety after a vertigo is ingredibly high, you have the fear when it ll come back and this worsening the condition.when i calmed down, i found my balance again and fatigue gone.if someone hasnt felt vertigo, he cant really understand what an awful feeling is...
epley manoyvres really helped

It can take some time, so be patient.  

Stay as active as you can.  Avoid quick head motions and excessive head movements.

I have read there is a connection between BPPV and wisdom teeth extractions.  

I would recommend consulting an ENT Specialist or Neurologist if this persists.
