I actually have one on the visor shelf over the passenger seat in the getting Mightier Freightliner, and used to use it on road trips in the Mighty Dodge as either a head/neck pillow or as a lumbar support when my back started hurting. (Amazingly, both my DW and I did 3,000+ miles in the crappy/cheap Freightliner seats back in December with zero back pain or discomfort.)
What I've been doing for a few weeks now is sleeping on my back with a rolled-up bath towel under my neck for support. Both my shoulders and the back of my head are in contact with the mattress, nose pointed straight up at the ceiling.
After Wednesday's second BPPV head-twisting treatment, I was able to walk down 300' long hallways at work today absolutely straight...no grabbing for a wall or pulling to the left or right! I also noticed that both of my arms were swinging naturally as I walked, which is amazing since my right arm seemed to be a bit lazy when walking ever since the initial 2016 pacemaker surgery.
Long story short, i recommend that the OP go see an ENT specialist and see if you have BPPV. They can do god's Konami code while you're there to reset the crystals in your ears. I recommend having someone drive you to the appointment, because at least in my case I was told to go directly home and take a 2-hour nap on my back and absolutely no looking down for 48 hours. Certainly a test of the ol' marksmanship skills for me, being on large quantities of vitamin pee and not being able to look down to confirm that I'm on target.....
