Hi all My dilemma is this : Has everyone have/had vertigo with MD? Has anyone have just dizziness and no vertigo ? I had an initial vertigo attack in 2019 but not a single one since My 2019 ENT called it atypical Ménière’s My 2022 ENT says that was the wrong diagnosis because of no addl vertigo I have other MD symptoms too: Loss of hearing Bad tinnitus Memory loss and confusion Ear popping pressure at times Dizziness is the worst Did use JOH regimen in 2019 and it went away for 3 years Tried it again this time but gave up too soon if anyone has consistent dizziness, would appreciate knowing Thank you
Same here. Have strong hearing loss and tinnutus. While my dizziness attack me only when i have bad posture sitting working in front of a table, it does not happen otherwise
Siren, read your thread, and I'm wondering if you are dealing with BPPV rather than Meniere's. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) - Symptoms and causes
Without true rotational vertigo, it cannot be a Meniere's diagnosis. We term it cochlear hydrops when the inner-ear inflammation affects the cochlea rather than the vestibular system. That said, it could well be possible that the root cause of inflammation is the same as those who do have their vestibular system affected (or inflammation severe enough that it leads to vertigo).
I had severe Vertigo and am late stage Meniere's My doctor put me on Alprazolam and it stopped it immediately. It also eliminated stress that creates Tinnitus. Alprazolam changed my life- maybe it can for you as well
Thanks guys! I'm indeed diagnosed with cochlear hydrops. My dizziness seems not related to the hearing loss in time.
Like many diseases, Meniere's is progressive. Hearing loss, tinnitus, etc. are the "shots across the bow" before vertigo arrives on scene. As a teen in the 70's, riding on a ferris wheel scared the crap outta me. Now I know why.
