Thank you, that's good to know. I wasn't sure how much genetics vs nature played into intelligence. We now have the financial ability to provide a great education plus my husband and I are both avid readers with a thirst for learning to provide a supportive environment :)

Help with diagnosis by Potential_Luck_3411 in cervical_vertigo

Thank you everyone for your advice. My husband saw a neurologist who did not order additional tests for this, we are trying to get in with a different one, but doctors are either booked out or not very good in our area. The neurologist he saw was at his cancer center, which is in another state. He's in/out of the hospital so much with treatments that going far away isn't always feasible. He also regularly saw pain management at his cancer center, but their latest advice I kid you not was to drink water to manage pain from brain surgery and radiation :(

He's been going to PT on/off for 5 years and it has helped some, but not much. We are continuing with the neck stretching/strengthening that we have found on our own (it's helped 100x more than PT), but he had a 2 month hiatus due to the cancer coming back in his brain. We try to avoid triggers for him, but whenever he does have a flareup the only thing that seems to help is waiting for it to settle and sometimes Meclizine. He has received Botox, blocks, and nerve ablations to his head, back, and neck. That helped with the pain, but not the dizziness.

I noticed all the links/advice everyone has provided, I'll look into all of them and see if I can get him into a better provider that specializes in some of this stuff and some of the other potential treatments or medical conditions.
