My mom has been having vertigo for the last 2 weeks, since she hit her head pretty hard on something.

She is dizzy, she is scared, and has made an appointment for tomorrow. She hasn't been anywhere since March. But she is very worried about what is going on with her head and dizzyness, and so tomorrow she is going to go to a doctor appointment for it. (specialist referral).

She is 78 and Diabetic.
