Room spinning when sleeping

Hi, something is wrong with me lately. Every time when I lay down to sleep, the whole room starts spinning, and I have a feeling like I’m going to fall down through the bed. What could this be about?

Hi, same problem here! I know the feeling. It’s like you’re drunk and try to fall asleep, but you cant because the room wont stop spinning around. The problem is that I have this feeling without any alcohol. I went to a doctor two days ago, and he thinks I have some disease called Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. This condition is an inner ear problem that results in short lasting, but severe, room-spinning vertigo. It’s usually caused by head trauma or a severe cold, and sometimes, it is just part of the aging process. The only thing I don’t understand is why I have a feeling of a room spinning only when I wont to sleep? It was a relief when I read your message, and realized that I’m not the only person with this problem.

hi there i had the vertigo feeling last night i was ever so frightened, what a horrible feeling.

i have the same feeling, but the last time i woke up to find blood on my pillow, its as if the the whole room is flipping and im falling.

hi i had a sroke 9 year ago and have vertigo.For the past coule year i get dizziness and feel sic when i'm sleeping,but it passes if i lie on my left side,which i can't for long as i have swallowing issues and i choke so its a no win situation.I did go to my doctor he didn't now what it was and said its maybe panic attacks.i disagree.i think myself its the vertigo playing up at night when i'm leeping. any idea's?

if you are sitting or laying down and the room is spinning it normally means that u are going into shock, i go into that type of shock every time i sit in a chair.
