Symptom narrative

pt says on Feb 8th he was taken to the ER. because the room was violently spinning and he was vomiting. They did multiple test which were all negative. He had a head and neck CT with contrast. Had an EKG and cardiac marker lab work. His DX was vertigo. They prescribed him Zofran and meclizine. He followed up with PCP Dr. on Feb 14th. He DX was vestibular neuritis. His recommendation was to continue the meds that he was given in the ER since this is a virus caused by varicella which is the active ingredient from the Shingrix vaccine. He is still having the symptoms and dizziness from the virus and will discuss having the second dose with his PCP.
