This video isn't all that informative. First of all, one symptom is absent. I have this symptom, and it was in the menieres booklet given to me by my physician, when i was diagnosed. Nystagmus was one of the major symptoms. Second, these episodes are quite different than my experience. What they describe as episodes, i call spells. In which, they last a few minutes, to a few hours, then they fade. MY episodes of vertigo lasts three to four days at a time. Along with ear fullness, and motion sickness. I take Meclazine daily. Also, my tinnitus has been around for over 40 years. Mever stopping. Only changing in volume. During my episodes, the tinnitus fluctuates in volume, and frequency with every single syllable of every word I hear. This video is basically talking about mild cases, and not really giving the whole story.
I am a bit surprised that you didn’t mention the Menniores symptom that I have struggled with ever since I got Menniores in 2015. And that is the almost constant feeling of tiredness and weakness that has me lying down several times a day, as well as not having a desire to do anything that I would like to do.
Your symptoms sound like SOME of mine, except my being tired and having no desire to do anything is caused by the medication my neurologist prescribed, Trazodone, which is an anti-depressant. My GF loves me taking that pill because she says now I'm not always on edge (used to be a federal court trial lawyer before Ménières forced my retirement).
They diagnosed Ménières (it is NOT spelled "Menniores") in 2010. And my ENT and Neurology doctors determined that after reducing my salt intake and taking a combo blood pressure / diuretic pill (HCTZ) that my Ménières trigger was anxiety. So an anti-depressant was the best way to reduce that trigger.
This is a roundabout way of asking, have you determined what is causing you to always be fatigued, weak, and lacking motivation. Might it be the medication you are taking? I ask this because of my experience with Trazodone.
If it is not medication, or lack of it, have your doctors attempted to determine what's causing those symptoms?
Do you have tinnitus? That will cause you to lose sleep, cause insomnia, and cause interrupted sleep. End result: because you are not sleeping well, the next day you will be tired, lack motivation, and feel weak.
Indeed, I have really severe tinnitus. So like others, I have to have noise in the background 24/7. And to lessen the effect of hot flashes (caused by Ménières), I have to run my window AC unit all the time, even at night when in bed (and even when it is 56 degrees outside, like it is right now).
It is a lot of work for us afflicted with Ménières to determine which symptoms are caused by what condition, injury, or disease. Followed by determining which treatments work best for you. And finally, to avoid triggers particular to you that bring on or exacerbate attacks. For example, my doctors determining anxiety or anxiousness was a BIG trigger for me. And that salt was forever going to cause me problems, so now I use salt substitutes.
Hope this helps.
I too experience extreme fatigue. Also, brain fog and migraines, etc. with the other Meniere's symptoms.
Me too. I take a benzodiazepine
I take Meclazine, and it can cause drowsiness. The symptoms spoken on here aren't accurate. What I call spells, of vertigo last a fre minutes yo several hours. What u call my episodes lasts 3 to 4 days. I've had 24/7 tinnitus for 40 years. It never stops, only changes in volume. There is also one other symptom noy spoken of here, which was actually in the menieres booklet given to be by my physician. And that's nystagmus. Even on the days that I'm actually capable of driving, I have problems backing up. The view in the mirrors are disorienting, and if I try to look backwards out of my window, it feels like my eyes are being pulled from the sockets. It's mostly when I look hard left/right. During my episodes I fell this sensation while looking straight ahead. A short time after having this sensation, my eyes begin to jiggle. Which is nystagmus. This video isn't really all that informative..
@@SonsOfLore I self-police. I will not drive if any eye or disorientation affects are active. Thankfully, I made friends with neighbors before the Menieres reappeared in my life. They have helped me. I never take advantage, am always grateful, offer to take them to lunch or help them in some way that I am able.
Do not drive if you have any active symptoms which could cause driving to trigger you into a full low episode, injuring yourself or others. Since you have a known disorder, and choose to drive, you may be liable for any collisions or injury costs. Something you need to research and consider.
Thank you very much for this description. I have had this (diagnosed as Menieres) for 50 yrs and never got such a thorough definition. Thanks for sharing time, knowledge, expertise. Have never had the masked eye test and notice episodes occur after lots of focused reading on my phone. Love this channel!
Glad it was helpful! You're very welcome, DKatt.
I've had this condition for several years, but was misdiagnosed, until 4 years ago. This video is actually leaving allot out. One would be nystagmus, which is a symptom listed in the booklet given to me when I was diagnosed. Also, episodes don't last a few hours. They last for several days. Also, I've had every single one of these tests, and my tinnitus has been constant for over 40 years. Only fluctuating with my episodes.
I am still praying that SPI-1005 will be a possible cure for this. The trials already show very positive results.
Try DTR Therapy. Usually cures 99% of Meniere’s symptoms. It’s just expensive
I was diagnosed with the disease 60years ago from the age of 10.
That long ago diruretics were the only medication and for me they didn't make any difference.
My early attacks were severe and involved lots of uncontrollable vomiting and I would have to lay down and stare at some fixed point to try to stop the world spinning. My relief was probably due to exhaustion allowing me to sleep.
I would get these episodes maybe 4 times a year.
My hearing in the affected ear did suffer and got worse over the years.
From about age 20 I could no longer use that ear on say a telephone.
I experimented on myself and found in the not so severe attacks if I could take a single panadol before the vomiting started l could stop the attack and be back to relative normal in about 15 minutes.
My disease slowly eased off over the years to the point I haven't had a severe attack in about the last 20 years.
I'm practically deaf in the effected ear today but the tinnitus in that ear is louder than ever and could send a person insane if you don't learn to ignore it.
The disease might backoff but it is always with you.
I can bring on an attack at will simply by heat or cold. A bar heater or sun on my affected ear only or swimming in cold water.
Many years ago a Doctor told me the only cure was to have my inner ear removed and I balked at that because I didn't know any better.
What I know now is that people should consider it because you're going to go deaf in that ear anyway and you can avoid the tinnitus and vertigo. I'm truly sorry for those who have it in both ears.
I hope this information helps someone.
Mistakenly expressed in this video, episodes of Meniere's can last months. Usually, vertigo that rests in what I call is "in a state of flux." A state living with constant vertigo and tinnitus. Hearing (frequency) loss and gains can also occur. Especially in the early stages. When I first got Meniere's, some mid to high frequencies were highly amplified to the point that a door latch sounded like a firecracker, and audio could still be heard on a television that was muted across the room. This subsided after about a year. There are also stages of remission with proper diet and the daily use of diuretics. Also not mentioned are other possible causes like chemical exposure. So clearly, not enough investigation research has been done on Meniere's giving the factors I mentioned, which probably means the medical industry is not truly looking for a viable solution or cure.
Can you give me information about patulosis tuba, that is, Eustachian enlargement?
I have bilateral meniere's disease. This was perfect way of explaining the disease.
Thank you!
I’m surprised you didn’t mention cochlear implants for those of us who have lost our hearing due to MD. What are your views on these implants, are they effective in restoring audition?
I have not ever seen a video on Menieres which accurately covered this disease, and this video does not cover it completely either.
I was diagnosed in 1990, and have tinnitus since then. More currently, I have learned more about medication options which have long term problems. (I.e. Anti-histamines can lead to Alzheimers/ Meclazine is an anti-histamine)
I was fortunate to have relatively little reoccurrence of Menieres for almost 23 years. But it has returned over time with increasing frequency as i age (?) or from a head injury in 2013 (?) or both.
Now re-navigate this disabling, life disturbing disease. I look and act great on good days, but the “next day” might need a cane, afraid to move, needing to stay on the floor and crawl to avoid falling and injuring myself. At times, I drag around a trash bucket in case of vomiting.
I wear something with a pocket to keep my iPhone handy in case I really need help. A neighbor has an extra key.
It is a hidden disorder that, unless witnessed, people who are unfamiliar with it can not begin to understand.
Truly no on understand this problem 😢😢
I'm so confused because I have really crazy fluctuating tinnitus that started 2-3 weeks ago. I also very vivid dreams and it seems that sleeping flat on my bed makes my tinnitus spike to the point where it wakes me up. It calms down when get up from bed, but I'm confused as to why sleeping flat on my bed would cause this. Also feels like I have fluid moving around in the ears when I rotate my head. Could it be a lose crystal? Any videos you created about ear crystals?
How about an episode about tensor tympani syndrome?
This is a great suggestion for future topic! Thank you!
I have heard very good things about Upper Cervical chiropractic adjustment.
Thank you , I have seen your comment and have find a practice in London that has excellent reviews of past clients with meniere saying they have been stabilised after a year of sessions with very little symptômes left
Thank you so much for your comment
Didn't help for me.
Its hard to have meniere desease😢
Vertigo and tinnitus😢
Cant sleep,stressful😢
My neck is painful,iF my ear noisy😢
6month I have meniere desease😢😢😢
what is difference tinnitus and meneare desease?
Got to be honest the sound of this videos actually causes me discomfort. It's very high pitched
I had minieres disease two months back and i was administered steroid injections in the inner ear. Partially i got the hearing back in the affected left ear. But still some tinitus is persisting and disturb ny hearing. Any loud talking or hearing increases the tinitus and disturbs more my listening. Net result is , it is not a peaceful listening. Secondly at some head positions on the bed creates a gudiness for a short time or else i have to turn my head to about + or - 120deg. Will these two troubles stop or i have to live with this. I am 73year old.. will the freq response of my left ear improve over time or not? It is some what ok up to 4khz..rt ear is ok with upto 8 khz
What about the effects of EMF/Wifi/5G devices on this condition?
What about taking Niacin, B1 and B2 250mg each vitamins ??
I tried supplements but they didn't help.
@@willp9226 I had acupuncture treatment 2 times a week for 6 mos... I think it worked. also, no salt, processed foods, carbs, sugar. drink lots of water. worked for me.

Since your viewers may be experiencing vertigo, it's not a good idea to have flashing images in the background of your slides.
You are correct! We'll keep that in mind and make sure our future videos are comfortable and safe for everyone, including those with vertigo. Your feedback is appreciated!
I was diagnosed with meniere disease about 25 yrs ago. Lost hearing in left ear for 6 months and then got Partial hearing back. I’ve been very careful regarding moving and turning to help keep vertigo under control. I’ve had 2-3 episodes of vertigo with feeling of falling or nausea and having to crawl to bathroom(1) time. My hearing continued to decrease in left ear and moved right ear, I wear hearing aids in both ears but still have difficulty hearing in large groups or loud situations. I’ve experienced pain in both ears very sharp and short lived but irritating. Tinnitus comes and goes but fatigue is a daily visitor and sleeping if I sit for an hour or more I tend to want to doze off except driving. I’d be interesting in anything that might help.
We would be happy to discuss different options that can provide additional relief. Schedule a complimentary telehealth consultation: treble.health/consultation
Is it autoimmune disorder?
Meniere's disease is not an autoimmune disorder.

A friend of mine at work complained about ear ringing, vertigo and Meniere disease for a very long time, I told him about #DrMadida on CZcams that gave him a treatment he used. We were recently discussing at work when he told me that the treatment worked that he don’t longer experience the ringing, eye spinning and others anymore. I am so happy for him.
Too much talking without cure
Try listening to the end. There are treatments. An absolute cure has not yet been discovered. This is very detailed and helpful.
@@dkattkatt7633 Those treatments don't work. At best, they are temporary.
