What we measure

Every metric that matters for your spins

Vestibular subtypes have different trigger profiles. VertigoMe tracks the universal ones (sleep, weather, hormones) plus the subtype-specific ones (sodium for Meniere's, position for BPPV, tinnitus for endolymphatic conditions) so the correlation engine has enough signal to find your patterns.

Vestibular-specific metrics

The data points unique to vestibular conditions, captured because generic symptom trackers miss them.

Spin episodes

Onset time, duration, severity (1 to 10), nausea, position at onset, direction of perceived motion, residual imbalance.

DurationSeverityPosition at onsetNauseaDirectionAftermath

Hearing & tinnitus

Daily tinnitus check-in (pitch, volume, laterality), ear fullness, audiogram uploads stored over time.

Sodium

First-class daily sodium logging for Meniere's protocols. Personal ceiling, food search, barcode entry, weekly trend.

Daily mgCeiling7-day averageFoods log

Clinical scales

Validated questionnaires scored in-app and tracked over time. Bring trend graphs to your specialist.

VRT adherence

Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy sessions: duration, exercise type, completion. Correlate with spin frequency.

Universal health metrics

Pulled automatically from your wearable and your phone. Zero manual logging.

Sleep

A poor night roughly doubles vestibular migraine risk the following day. Tracked automatically.

Stress & recovery

HRV drops and elevated resting HR can precede spins in autonomically-mediated subtypes like PPPD.

Weather & pressure

Barometric pressure drops are a documented trigger for Meniere's and vestibular migraine. Push alerts for sharp drops.

Nutrition

Sodium is first-class. Caffeine, alcohol and tyramine matter especially for vestibular migraine. Hydration matters everywhere.

Cycle & hormones

Hormonal shifts are a known modulator of vestibular migraine. Optional cycle tracking integrates into the risk model.

Activity

Step counts, workouts and intensity. Useful for PPPD where graded movement exposure matters.

Device & environment

Screen time and visually busy environments can trigger spins in vestibular migraine and PPPD.
