I was in the Army for seven years. Been out since 85. I presently have a 90% disability due to a knee replacement, back stabilization, organ loss, and sciatic partial paralysis. Recently I have developed Vertigo. Out of nowhere for no obvious or apparent reason. (no water, no concussion, no infection) The Doc prescribed prednisone to reduce internal pressure/swelling in my right ear. I've been receiving the Eply maneuver via physical therapy which helps but does not stop the dizziness. The Doc says give it time it should go away. It definitely interferes with quality of life. Is it compensable? I am a long timeout of service. I've claimed hearing loss but was denied long ago for not enough loss and no service connection according to raters.
