Just a question. Is this recent? Are you taking large doses of anti-inflammatories, such as Celebrex?

My father was on serious doses of Celebrex for knee osteoarthritis. He said it made him dizzy. I thought he was crazy, since that isn't usually a side affect.

About a year later, I was taking massive doses of Celebrex for neck, shoulder and knee issue due to long distance cycling. I started getting issues where if I moved my head too fast, I'd get a big hit of vertigo.

I stopped taking the Celebrex, moving to a special form of Ibuprofen coated with stomach protecting coating. I haven't had an issue since. My father was moved to Naproxen and he hasn't had any issues either.
