I had thyroid surgery about 12 weeks ago. 2 weeks after surgery I began experience vertigo every time I would lay down and sometimes while walking, etc. Most of the day to day vertigo has disappeared (it does act up quite a bit the more tired I am) but the vertigo at night while I'm trying to sleep is still problematic. In addition, I discovered I have MVP and am on 20 mg of Propanolol each evening. Can this med cause the vertigo? The vertigo feeling is like I can't hold my head up almost like a "rolling back" feeling of my head. It happens the minute I lay down and close my eyes and will sometimes bother me during sleep. An ENT told me this is cervical/positional vertigo as a result of my surgery. Does this concur with anyone else? Also, how can you make it go away and how long does it take? My quality of life is suffering between the MVP bothering me at night (heart palps, feeling like someone's sitting on my chest, etc) along with vertigo does not make for a pleasant combo. I feel like I've not gotten a good night's sleep in months. I think I aggrevated the situation by trying to go back to work after a few days and not resting enough. (Surgery's way harder than I thought). The remaining thyroid is working great, but I do have a pull in my neck when I swallow. Will this go away? Thanks!
