I'm sorry you don't have a support system at home. I'm here for you. I was just diagnosed this week after suffering for years. I thought I had lost my freaking mind. I'm so glad to finally have a diagnosis.

I am new here too, but not new to MD. I have had this disease since the late 1990's. I too was in my 20's. It hit me out of the blue. I found myself with a full feeling in my right ear that I could not shake. Then came a major vertigo attack. I had a good friend who was an audiologist. He sent me for a battery of tests, and referred to ENT. I started on Serc, which was a life saver. After a few months, my symptoms went away. I spent more that 10 years after that with very little issues. My hearing was normal, and I had just occasional dizziness that could be solved with Serc. I went on to live my life very well. Everyone is different is what I have learned, what works for one, may not work for all but there is hope. You can do well. You can find hope. There is no magic cure, but there are things that can help. Now I know I was in remission. My symptoms came back in a big way last year. This year has been rough, but I am seeing improvement again. My Serc has been increased and it has helped spread out my attacks. I am still working full time, still driving, still living as best I can. I have had to make adjustments and take time to recover, but there is hope. Now I am focusing on exercising, eating well, drinking lots of water, whatever I can do. When I feel well, I try my best to not dwell on things and live my life. When I don't feel well, I do my best to rest and recover. There is always hope, and ways to manage. Hang in there!

My wife has MD. I can relate to many of life's daily challenges living with MD.

We found the highs and lows of her symptoms always coincide with the Barometric Pressure.

When the BP is stable she has fewer symptoms. ANY fluctuation worsens symptoms. A falling BP is the worse of the worse for her.

We decided to look into the places in America with the most stable BP.

Hawaii, San Diego and southwest Arizona have the most stable year round BP..

If possible try taking a trip to those locations during a time of BP instability in your current location.

We moved to San Diego long ago for this reason. She had a dramatic reduction in weather related MD symptoms..

It maybe worth looking into for other MD sufferers.

I completely understand what your going through. I'm 44 and my family and friends have all turned there backs in me. I had to relocate out of state so someone could help me. M symptoms are not visible so it's all in my head, I'm lying and I want attention I'm told
If you need someone to talk to join the spin cycle for Menieres

Acupuncture and doing allergy testing may help. Switching allergy testing as well.

My story began in 2016 when I had my 1st vertigo attack. The ENT I saw diagnosed me with a viral infection and sent me home. Several months later I had a 2nd attack and the same ENT again diagnosed me with a viral infection. I convinced my family practitioner doctor to run tests on me to rule out Parkinson’s disease. It wasn’t until my 3rd attack in December 2016 while on vacation in California that a doctor at Huntington hospital in Pasadena did a CT scan. That test only ruled out the possibility of a brain tumor. When I returned home from vacation my family practitioner doctor was not available so I saw another doctor. He immediately scheduled me for an MRI with contrast. The results came back inconclusive so he told me that the good news is that a lot of the very nasty diseases have been ruled out. Next he recommended that I see a specialist at John’s Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore and get tested for Meniere’s disease. I took all my medical records and test results with me and met with Dr. Yuri Agrawal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBpQ99rxZjE.) She reviewed my medical records, test results and personal journals. Then tested my hearing and performed a long series of motion tests. The diagnosis came back that I have Meniere’s disease. She recommended Intratympanic Therapy (http://www.earassociates.com/services-intratympanic-therapy-san-jose-ca.html) This means that steroids are injected into the tympanum, or middle ear, through the ear drum. This is done with a minor surgical procedure performed in the office. I elected the steroid injection over an antibiotic Gentamicin injection because the steroid does not permanently damage your hearing. I had four injections from February 2017 to June 2017.
The end result is that the vertigo attacks have stopped. The Tinnitus and fullness in my left ear are still causing me daily issues. My triggers are salt and drops in barometric pressure (storms). I am managing my Meniere’s symptoms with a combination of doctor prescribed diuretic daily, low salt diet, no (caffeine, alcohol, chocolate), vitamin supplements (L-Lysine, Lemon bioflavonoid, Vitamin C) and stress reducing Tai Chi. My back up medication is doctor prescribed Meclizine if I feel an attack coming on. I know this regimen sounds like a lot but it helps me manage and is better for me than being dizzy or lethargic from prescription medications like valium.
In addition, I joined the Meniere’s Society (http://www.menieres.org.uk/) they send me a quarterly magazine called SPIN with helpful articles. Hope my story helps you.
