Hi,


I was diagnosed in 2015, but suffered symptoms as far back as 2003. I am wondering if allergies trigger my symptoms. Also along this line, are there any members here from low vegetataion states such as Nevada or Arizona or New Mexico?

I was told by several doctors that allergies can trigger or worsen symptoms in some people. I met someone in a support group years ago whose symptoms were vastly improved once he was tested for and treated for allergies.

Skippersdad,

Hey buddy, I live in N. Central Arizona.
I've NEVER had any type of allergy at all. But this year I've been sneezing more than ever. Maybe a cpl times a day. Not much, and much less than many people. But for me to sneeze everyday, is something.

My Meniers is very slight. And I have not had any equilibrium problems for nearly a year. Though the tinnitus that comes with it, is 24 hours a day.

I can't say anything in my life has ever made the Meniers better or worse.

Its just a constant pain in the neck when its full blown and I can barely stand up from it.

Anytime you hear of any new information. Please post it or contact me. Thanks.....
