http://www.utmem.edu/otolaryngology/Patients&Public/Ear&BalanceCenter/Menieres.h

Extractions: Menieres disease is a chronic condition of the inner ear causing episodes of vertigo and sensorineural hearing loss. The nerve hearing loss fluctuates with each dizzy spell, and there is usually tinnitus- ringing in the ear. Most patients experience fullness or pressure in the ear. After repeated episodes there is usually some degree of permanent hearing loss. This complex of inner ear symptoms can mild or in some instances severe. Dizziness is usually the predominant symptom. Severe or frequent dizziness can greatly interfere with normal life, putting the patient at risk of falls, or accidents. Fortunately there is usually at least a few minutes of warning (ear pressure, tinnitus or hearing loss) prior to the start of the episode of vertigo. The vertigo usually lasts a few hours but may last a day or more. There is usually nausea, often vomiting, and any motion makes the dizziness worse. Treatment requires salt and caffeine restriction as these substances interfere with fluid regulation. During an episode of dizziness, vestibular suppressants are used to sedate the part of the brain involved with balance and reduce dizziness. Meclizine, valium, dramamine or similar drugs can be taken by mouth. Suppositories are available if there is vomiting. A diuretic (fluid pill) taken daily can prevent or greatly reduce dizziness in most cases. Other medications may be prescribed by some Otolaryngologists, however there is disagreement on the usefulness of these. While treatment is usually very helpful with dizziness, hearing loss may show no improvement. A hearing aid may be very helpful.

Amazingly, within 4 treatments almost all symptoms of the disorder were gone. Even though she suffered with the symptoms for the past 7 months straight, they returned after the initial four treatments but one time and then never again. What was most interesting was that I did not think at the time that I was giving a Menieres specific treatment. Instead I found a TCM diagnosis (in this case liver qi stagnation with yang rising) and followed through with it. In other words I did not use any "magical" empirical point known to the ancients for vertigo or dizziness. In effect it became a proof that the theory of Chinese medicine wasnt just a complete farce, but instead a meaningful pursuit in treating problems that didnt have

Extractions: The French physician Prosper Meniere first described the cause of this particular type of vertigo in 1861. Prior to his observations many physicians diagnosed vertiginous patients as having "apoplectiform cerebral congestion" and it was not until Meniere's work that the condition was truly thought to originate in the inner ear balance organ. However, it was not until 1938 when Hallpike and Cairns microscopically examined the inner ears of patients with Meniere's disease, that the dilatation of the inner ear spaces was found to be at the heart of the problem.

Meniere s disease. What Is Meniere s disease? Meniere s disease, also called idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops, is a disorder of the inner ear.
http://www.freehearingtest.com/menieres.shtml

Extractions: Meniere's Disease What Is Meniere's Disease? Meniere's disease, also called idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops, 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. What Are the Symptoms? The symptoms of the 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. Vertigo is commonly produced by disorders of the inner ear, but may also occur in central nervous system disorders. The vertigo of Meniere's disease occurs in attacks of a spinning sensation and is accompanied by disequilibrium (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.

Extractions: of Victoria Stages of Meniere's Disease Understanding Ménière 's Symptoms ... Home Ménière's disease progresses through three distinct stages. Unfortunately the condition is individual and no one can predict the time frame for each individual. Depending on the cause of the hydrops in a particular person, different treatments (medical, and in extreme cases, surgical) may or may not be effective at controlling the symptoms. Stage 1 In this stage vertigo is usually the predominant symptom. Complete recovery occurs after each attack and often, by the time of diagnostic tests, the ear has returned to normal. By making a correct diagnosis early in the progression of the disease the long-term effects may be lessened by making appropriate life style and dietary changes (reduction of salt, caffeine, nicotine and alcohol) Patient history is one of the most important factors in making the diagnosis However, often the vertigo is so distressing that many people fail to notice changes in hearing or even the tinnitus. You need an astute physician asking the right questions! Stage 2 During this stage it is easier to make the diagnosis. Symptoms can be referred to as 'classical'. Hearing fluctuates but never returns to normal levels. Tinnitus increases with attacks, and becomes continuous. The feeling of pressure or aural fullness may be worse before and during an attack. Attacks of vertigo tend to occur in clusters and may be severe enough to affect your lifestyle. However, between the series of attacks there may be periods of remission, which can vary from a few weeks to several years.

Membership is open to anyone with a personal or professional interest in Ménière's disease. Aims of MSGV Ménière's disease is an unseen debilitating condition of the inner ear, which causes vertigo, nausea, deafness and tinnitus and radically changes an individual's well-being and lifestyle. Attacks may occur without warning and their frequency, severity and duration cannot be anticipated. There is no known medical cure. The onset of Ménière's disease causes social isolation and withdrawal from family and social life. It may also limit employment opportunities. Currently Ménière's can only be managed to some degree by the use of medication, diet, rest and natural therapies and as a last resort by radical surgical intervention. MSGV is focused on understanding Ménière's disease and its impact on the health and well-being of individuals (including their family, work and social relationships) and exists to provide support and practical information to people with Ménière's disease and to increase professional and community understanding of Ménière's disease and its impact.

http://www.fhma.com/menieres.htm

Extractions: This page comes from www.medscape.com/home/patient/patientinfo.html Meniere's disease is an abnormality of the inner ear causing a host of symptoms, including vertigo or severe dizziness, tinnitus or a roaring sound in the ears, fluctuating hearing loss, and the sensation of pressure or pain in the affected ear. The disorder usually affects only one ear and is a common cause of hearing loss. Named after French physician Prosper Meniere's who first described the syndrome in 1861, Meniere's disease is now also referred to as endolymphatic hydrops. The symptoms of Meniere's disease are associated with a change in fluid volume within a portion of the inner ear known as the labyrinth. The labyrinth has two parts: the bony labyrinth and the membranous labyrinth. The membranous labyrinth, which is encased by bone, is necessary for hearing and balance and is filled with a fluid called endolymph When your head moves, endolymph moves, causing nerve receptors in the membranous labyrinth to send signals to the brain about the body's motion. An increase in endolymph, however, can cause the membranous labyrinth to balloon or dilate, a condition known as endolymphatic hydrops. Many experts on Meniere's disease think that a rupture of the membranous labyrinth allows the endolymph to mix with perilymph, another inner ear fluid that occupies the space between the membranous labyrinth and the bony inner ear. This mixing, scientists believe, can cause the symptoms of Meniere's disease. Scientists are investigating several possible causes of the disease, including environmental factors, such as noise pollution and viral infections, as well as biological factors.

There is a type of migraine known as basilar artery migraine which affects blood vessels in the back of the head and will give symptoms of both migraine and Meniere's Disease, such as dizziness, loss of balance and ringing in the ears. With Meniere's Disease there is a progressive deafness which does not happen in the migraine syndrome.

http://www.doctor-brom.com/tinnitus-types/menieres.htm

Extractions: Meniere's Disease and Tinnitus Briefly, Meniere's Disease is a condition that occors when degeneartion of the inner ear structures occur. The fluid-filled hearing and balance structures of the inner ear normally function independent of the body's overall fluid/blood system. In a normal inner ear, the fluid is maintained at a constant volume and contains specific concentrations of sodium, potassium, chloride, and other electrolytes. This fluid bathes the sensory cells of the inner ear and allows them to function normally. Certain substances in your blood and other body fluids influence your inner ear fluid. For instance, when you eat foods that are high in salt or sugar, your blood level concentration of salt or sugar increases, and this, in turn, will affect the concentration of substances in your inner ear. With injury or degeneration of the inner ear structures, independent control may be lost, and the volume and concentration of the inner ear fluid fluctuate with changes in the body's fluid/blood.

http://www.alphatinnitusformulas.com/menieres_information_page.asp

Extractions: A typical attack of Meniere's Disease may be preceded by fullness or aching in one or both ears. Hearing fluctuation and tinnitus (ringing ear or sounds in the ears) may also precede an attack. A Meniere's episode generally involves severe vertigo (head spinning and dizziness), imbalance, nausea, and vomiting. The average attack lasts two to four hours. After a severe attack, most people find that they are extremely exhausted and must sleep for several hours. In some people, Meniere's episodes may occur in clusters; that is, several attacks may occur within a short time. In other cases, weeks, months, or even years may pass between episodes. Between the acute attacks, most people are free of symptoms or note only mild imbalance and tinnitus. What causes Meniere's Disease The fluid-filled hearing and balance structures of the inner ear normally function independent of the body's overall fluid/blood system.
