    Would it be about your Meniere's? It would have to be wouldn't it? I mean, like, included in this question would be Meniere's in general. What causes it really. What truly are the treatments that work best? Does sodium even matter? Why didn't my shunt work? Etc.

    I've always thought JFK was shot by Oswald. That wouldn't even rank in my top 100 questions.

    I'd like to know what happened to some lost items. I had a really cool knife as a kid. I think my brother stole it. But how could he? It was a Christmas gift he knew I loved.

    Why did my parents (so different from each other) decide to marry each other? What was going on in their heads?

    Why wouldn't Suzy go out with me in high school?

    Stuff like this I'm dying to know. But if I had just one question, the clear and distant winner is about my Meniere's.

    It's GOT to at least be in your top 3 right? If not, what's in front of it?

    (Regardless of your beliefs, for the sake of discussion let's just say there's an all knowing being you meet after death. We'll just call him god. And if we can exclude the big questions, like "why did you create life...what's it all about?" Let's just keep it personal.)

    I doubt that I'll be asking questions---I'll be so happy to be in heaven, all pain-sorrow, etc. 'gone'! Seeing Jesus--and my family/friends will be the 'best part'.
    I can see why folks suffering for one reason or another could think about that--because we all have to wonder--why these physical/mental issues exist here. I just believe all that will be 'past' and heaven will be so wonderful, the bad stuff won't be an issue.

    It's really annoying when someone joins a game only to declare that they're not going to play the game.

    Why did my granddaughter have a life threatening liver disease when she was born why did she have to endure a liver transplant at age 18months to save her life and why did one young teenager die so my granddaughter could live? A 3 part question is that OK?

    No, it wouldn't be about Menieres at all.

    I would ask him, if he turns out to be real, how he managed to f*ck it all up so badly and create a broken world that was doomed to fail 95%+ of the people who lived on it.

    Hmmm. This didn't quite work out as intended. That's ok. Maybe someday my knife will show up and we'll discover the root cause of the root cause of Meniere's disease.

    Pupper it did not work out because there are far worse things than meniere's. I know you are going through a real rough spot right now but .....and this comes from a women who suffered to the point I chose to have a laby so I know how bad it can be.

    I just meant for it to be light...personal facts we wish we knew about...not angry philosophical. I didn't explain it well enough. Not a big deal. That's what one gets for even typing the word god. I'm not even a believer. I should've made it a freaking genie.

    I would ask, why did you take my brother from me at such a young age.

    2. Why did you make my wife and I go through 7 miscarriages and all the pain, guilt and stress it entails loosing a child including a still born from trisomy 13.

    But most of all I would thank him for a he life he gave me and tell him I love him.

    I would ask her how she decides which prayer to answer when the pitcher is praying to her for a strike and the batter is praying to her for a home run. There must be some criteria.

    I'd ask, "What was in the briefcase at the end of 'Pulp Fiction'?" That is of the utmost importance. I was gonna ask why Tom Brady is so good, but because he is the spawn of Satan, I'll have to ask Satan himself. (Not a Tom Brady fan.) ;)

    If I do get to Heaven I assume I'll be Meniere's free. I learned a long time ago it's pretty pointless to wonder why certain things happen in my personal life. Instead, I'd ask question such as:

    Does Bigfoot exist?
    Is the Loch Ness monster real?
    Is there life on other planets and have aliens visited Earth?
    What happened to Amelia Earhart?
    Where is Jimmy Hoffa buried?
    Did O.J. really do it?
    Who killed Jon Benet?
    etc.

    No questions, I would be thankful for what I got. It could have been much worse!
