Hello, I am also new to this group. I was diagnosed this past week and have had hearing loss, ear pressure, tinnitus and bad dizzy spells for the past montj. I saw an neurotologists who has won awards for research on Menieres.
I feel confident in this doctor. He put me on antiviral medication and a glaucoma medication. He found that both meds reduce symptoms/flare ups in 70% of people, but can take 4-6 weeks to see if it is working or not. I am hopeful. Having these sudden attacks are so unpleasant for me and others around me. I hope you also find relief.

It would be good to rule out jaw issues and alignment issues. I favored one side when I chewed and had one leg that seemed shorter than the other. Found relief with an upper cervical chiropractor. You can try soft foods to see if stress on your jaw is triggering

Newly diagnosed so I cant speak to any treatments yet, but as far as how often I have symptoms it's been constant for the last 5-6 weeks. And I have had problems for the past 25+ years that occur several months apart to even a couple years apart. Doctors have refused to help me. Now that I have documented hearing loss and spinning sensation to the point of vomiting, I finally have a name to put to this. And the only suggestion was, eat less salt. I haven't eaten much in 6 weeks and it hasn't stopped yet. Not the helpful answer I was hoping for.

I avoid salt by not adding salt to food. I now have it in both ears. Keeping stress low and salt intake low helps but not 90%.

I was diagosed in 2013 but in one ear. In 2016/17 both ears. Last yeat bilarterial hearing lost

I was diagosed a couple of years ago in my left ear. I had lost 20% of my hearing in it already. This past couple of weeks i have had several attacks and symptoms are starting to show in my right ear as well. Theres only been a few things that have helped me Bonine for vomiting (since it seems i have severe attacks when it happens) a cane for balance and drop attacks) activated charcoal for brain fog, grapefruit seed oil for pressure and pain in ears, laying on my face and stomach to regain balance during severe vertigo attacks, just starting to take cvs brand zurrtec (was told it was better than zurrtec) for three days tho it's helping but not much. Taking holy basil and omega 3s for depression caused by this disease. I at one time almost had in under control (or at least i thought i did) then last august i had a severe head injury with concussion and havent been able to get it under control the past two weeks three severe episodes. Haven't found anything for tinnitus or the pain which comes from certain pitches (which i call sonic hearing tho its not sonic hearing but it hurts like its sonic waves) except putting my hands over my ears when it happens.

Has anyone tried betahistine for the ear fullness? Currently this is my only symptom - no vertigo - no dizziness. I do have hearing loss in right ear. The echo when I talk is driving me nuts. I have had the 3 injects and had some relief until a storm front moved in, now my right ear is awful. I pray for everyone who has this terrible diagnosis. I did have total freedom from chiropractic adjustments for 3 months then the ear fullness returned.

What glaucoma medication were you prescribed. I have the antiviral med but haven't started it yet. Have been away from home pet sitting and didn't want to start it while alone in a strange environment. Have any of you tried John's of Ohio regimen?
