http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/conditions/menieres.shtml

Extractions: In Meniere's disease the amount of fluid in the inner ear increases intermittently. This disturbs the hearing and balance mechanisms. Usually only one ear is affected. Its cause is unknown. Meniere's disease gives rise to 3 main symptoms - vertigo, tinnitus - and progressively increasing deafness. Sudden attacks of Meniere's may last minutes or several hours. During attacks there may be severe dizziness and loss of balance - vertigo; nausea and vomiting; tinnitus; loss of hearing; a feeling of pressure or pain in the affected ear; and abnormal jerky eye movements. Tinnitus may be constantly present or only occur during an attack. Between attacks hearing may improve. Hearing worsens with repeated attacks. Attacks become less frequent with time.

Extractions: Meniere's Disease Even though much has been learned about Meniere's disease since it was first described, over 130 years ago, many questions remain. The fluids of the inner ear , called endolymph and perilymph , are constantly being produced and absorbed by the circulatory system. Any disturbance in this delicate balance results in the overproduction or under absorption of fluids, which can lead to more pressure in the inner ear. The pressure can cause dizzy sensations, along with hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing in the ear).

Extractions: MÉNIÈRE'S DISEASE Ménière's disease is a long-term, progressive condition of the inner ear that damages both the organ of balance and the organ of hearing (cochlea). The main symptoms are acute episodic attacks of vertigo (spinning dizziness) and fluctuating levels of tinnitus and deafness. The frequency, suddenness and severity of these attacks can be very distressing and disabling. Information Courtesy of

Extractions: Conditions that suggest it Treatment recommendations Thousands of people suffer from this troublesome disease that affects the inner ear. Major symptoms include constant ringing in the ears and vertigo (dizziness). The disease is caused by overproduction of fluid in the inner ear but the reason for this is not understood. Theories include food allergies and spasms of the blood vessels, and problems with the immune system It has been treated with antihistamines, motion sickness drugs, anti-dizziness drugs, diuretics , and vaso-dilators with very little relief of symptoms. The patients often end up in surgery to get relief. It is common to have remissions and exacerbations of the symptoms; Meniere's Disease treatment severely challenges doctors.

http://hope4hearing.org/menieres.htm

Extractions: Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear. Although the cause is unknown, it probably results from an abnormality in the fluids of the inner ear. Meniere's disease is one of the most common causes of dizziness originating in the inner ear. In most cases only one ear is involved, but both ears may be affected in about 15% of patients. Meniere's disease typically starts between the ages of 20 and 50 years. Men and women are affected in equal numbers. The symptoms of Meniere's disease are episodic rotational vertigo (attacks of a spinning sensation), hearing loss, tinnitus (a roaring, buzzing, or ringing sound in the ear), and a sensation of fullness in the affected ear. Vertigo is usually the most troublesome symptom of Meniere's disease. It is defined as a sensation of movement when no movement is occurring and occurs in central nervous system disorders. The vertigo of Meniere's disease occurs in attacks of a spinning sensation and is accompanied by dysequilibrium (an off-balance sensation), nausea, and sometimes vomiting. The vertigo lasts for 20 minutes to two hours or longer. During attacks, patients are usually unable to perform activities normal to their work or home life. Sleepiness may follow for several hours, and the off-balance sensation may last for days. There may be an intermittent hearing loss early in the disease, especially in the low pitches, but a fixed hearing loss involving tones of all pitches commonly develops in time. Loud sounds may be uncomfortable and appears distorted. The tinnitus and fullness of the ear in Meniere's disease may come and go with changes in hearing, occur during or just before attacks, or be constant. The symptoms of Meniere's disease may be only a minor nuisance, or can become disabling, especially if the attacks of vertigo are severe, frequent, and occur without warning.

Extractions: Center for Hearing and Balance Center for Hearing and Balance Home Page Division of Audiology Division of Balance Disorders Division of Otology Medical Staff Information The Meniere's Disease Program Meniere's disease is a relatively common, disabling inner ear disorder characterized by severe attacks of dizziness, ringing in the ears and hearing loss . While conservative medical treatment is sucessful in about 70 percent of patients, the remaining 30 percent may require more aggressive treatment. In the past, surgery often resulted in complete hearing loss. Now, patients have the option of undergoing such procedures as a vestibular nerve section, an intracranial operation in which the vestibular nerve is selectively severed and hearing is preserved. The center is also using an innovative medical treatment for selected patients with Meniere's disease . Known as a chemical labyrinthectomy, the procedure involves a middle ear injection of gentamicin, a commonly used antibiotic that penetrates into the inner ear. Once there, it is toxic to the vestibular hair cells and reduces dizziness without the need for surgery or hospitalization.

There is no specific cause for Menieres disease and there is no cure. However, if you or a loved one has this disorder, our staff, using the latest in treatment, diagnostic technology, and management, can help you control the uncomfortable symptoms and assist you in improving the quality of your life. Physicians, audiologists, physical therapists, and other professionals work together to help develop a plan to help ease your symptoms and recommend changes in your daily activities to make living with Menieres easier. Symptoms of Menieres Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation that causes balance problems. Vertigo is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sweating.

MEI: Meniere's Disease
Michigan Ear Institute. Meniere s disease. For the diagnosis of Meniere s disease to be applicable, all of the symptoms in the first paragraph must be present.
http://www.michiganear.com/library/M/menieres.html

Extractions: Michigan Ear Institute Prosper Meniere was the first to report a group of patients with episodic vertigo attacks in 1861. His name has been associated with the disorder described below since that time. Formally, Meniere's disease is characterized by (1) unilateral sensorineural hearing loss, typically fluctuating and predominantly in the lower frequencies, (2) tinnitus, constant or intermittent with the hearing loss typically increasing in intensity before or during the vertiginous attacks and, (3) attacks of vertigo lasting minutes to hours with irregular intervals, and accompanied by nausea and vomitting. A sense of fullness in the ear is also experienced. The fluctuations in hearing often accompany the vertigo attacks. The patient is generally left exhausted and unstable for the subsequent one to three days after an acute vertigo attack. The tinnitus and fullness are generally constant, but frequently increase in severity just preceding, or during the attack. One difficulty in the diagnosis, and an issue of controversy, is that the auditory and vestibular symptoms may not develop simultaneously, and in many patients the full complement of symptoms never develop. For the diagnosis of Meniere's disease to be applicable, all of the symptoms in the first paragraph must be present. Subsequent terms have been created to attempt to categorize these possibilities. Meniere's variant, vestibular Meniere's, cochlear Meniere's and other terms have been applied to those with only a portion of the symptomatology. Endolymphatic hydrops is probably a more useful way of describing the disorder because it identifies the underlying problem (see below), with the understanding that there can be various manifestations and degrees of severity of the disease.
