Upper Cervical care saved me from the horrors of Meniere's. Go to UpperCervicalCare.com and DrRayDrury.com and read about UCC. See if they list a doc. in your area. I tried everything for relief, but this is the only treatment that has helped me.

I have very limited Meniers.
I do have the constant so called ringing in my ears. I thought it was just tinnitus. But then my equilibrium began to be unbalanced. I once was visiting my folks when I couldn't stand. I was outside and crawled onto their cement, under the parking area. It was winter and I nearly froze. My folks came out concerned. My Ma wanted to call an ambulance. I said no.... My dad brought out a pillow and blanket. I was there HOURS. That was the worst ever. Everything was spinning.
I've had episodes while driving. Where I've had to pull over. Never bad or very long. Just quick short episodes.

I am fanatical about cleaning my ears. Several times a day I use swabs. I rince my ears each week.
The tinnitus is still a constant. The feeling of being unbalanced has Not happened in about a year.
My equilibrium used to go haywire a few times a week. Sometimes more than once a day.

Don't ask me if the constant cleaning helps. I don't know..... but for me, maybe I'm doing something right.

My tinnitus is not ringing. But like very loud White noise on a television set. I wish I could get that to stop too.

katrina39--Thank you for your input. Can you give me more information?
1. Which symptoms did the UCC alleviate?
2. How many treatments did you have before you had relief?
3. How often do you have to have further treatment?
4. Did you have any history of long-term complete remission (months, years) prior to the treatment?
5. What are the risks of this treatment?

I have heard of this treatment but it is not something I'm going to jump into without a lot more research. I don't like the idea of anybody messing with my neck and I don't trust chiropractors to begin with. Not ruling it out completely, but not something I'm going to jump into, either.

Hi. I am new to this site. I have had what I have been told is probably Meniere's for many years now. Started off with attacks with ear pressure and tinnitus along with neck/facial pain and severe vertigo with attacks accompanied by nausea/vomiting. Lately attacks have changed a bit. Starting off with ear pressure and amping up the ringing which has gone on for days. No vomiting or nausea just lack of appetite. I also have pain sensation/tightness around right ear, neck, jaw, scalp and involving eye. On Prednisone course again. Reading about UCC and wondering if it could be of help. Looked on a site for referrals in my area. Closest was 3-1/2 hours and wondering how that could possibly work for me. Does anyone know how frequently treatments would be required? Thanks. Would appreciate any information.

I struggled for several years before I began to suspect a connection to my spine. I lost several days of work before my wife, in desperation, came home with a cervical collar for me to try. It immediately stopped the dizzy spells and I was able to work a full day without getting sick. Armed with that information, we were able to go back to the specialist and get recommended to UCC treatments that have done wonders.

Long story short, try the cervical collar (about $10 at my local drug store). If it works, that's definitely an avenue to follow.
