correct diagnosis??

I was diagnosed with Meniere's last week but am unsure if the diagnosis is correct. The Dr. is suggesting a needle in my eardrum but I am hesitant. Can someone tell me if they experience the same symptoms? Two years ago I awoke with the room spinning and vomited a couple of times. Sounds like classic Meniere's but I haven't had this since. Since this attack I have been off-balance every day. I feel "tipsy" and have pressure around my head. It starts at the top of my head and progresses downwards to cover my head as the day goes on. It's a feeling like wearing a cap even though I am not. The dizziness worsens when I use the computer or experience movement such as being in a car or having many people move around (mall). There is a side-to-side rocking motion when I lie down. I have no problems with hearing and no pressure in my ears or sinuses. I fear the needle due to risk of possible hearing loss but I can't cope with being dizzy every day. I just read about a nutritional supplement program. I would appreciate any feedback from you as I try to sort this out. Sunny

 

I haven't had any tests. The ENT Dr. listened to my story and based the diagnosis on what I told him about symptoms. I've had migraines for years but they are well controlled now through massage and acupuncture (1 - 2 a year and less severe). I am not familiar with migraine associated vertigo but will research it.

 

My vertigo attack lasted about 2 hours at its worse and 6 before I felt comfortable walking without support. It was a couple of days before I felt steady enough to leave the house.

The MAV video is interesting and sounds closer to my symptoms than Meniere's. Has anyone found an effective neuro otologist in Canada? I just heard about a Dr. Hain on another site. Does anyone know about him/her?
