Hey James, great video - I was wondering when there'd be a video on Meniere's! I've had it for over 10 years and in my case the symptoms have gradually got worse and worse. I too was told that eventually it burns out, but don't believe a word - afterall, how can anyone be sure of that when they don't know what causes the problem in the first place!! Best wishes to you.

"Effectiveness of Acyclovir on Meniere's Syndrome III Observation of Clinical Symptoms in 301 cases," Mitsuo Shichinohe, M.D., Ph.D., The Sapporo Medical Journal, Vol. 68, No. 4-6, Cases of 301 MD patients treated with antiviral meds The results were: In 82.5% of cases diagnosed as Meniere's Disease, 85% of cases diagnosed as Meniere's Syndrome, and 89.1% of cases diagnosed as vestibular dysfunction, vertigo disappeared, and tinnitus and hearing were improved.

It's becoming common knowledge that Meniere's is caused by a viral infection and can be cured in 85%~90% of cases by taking Valtrex 1000mg three times a day or Zovirex 800mg five times a day for 4~6 weeks. These drugs are not even mentioned by most ENTs could lead many a reader to consider drastic, ineffective and irreversible surgical management which is still being pushed by many lagging doctors. sources above:

also to let everyone know there is no cure for this disease. just stay on a low sodium diet or meds.

you might have meniere's disease..did you have rining in your hears? hearing loss? if so try a low sodium diet. no more then 1500 to 2000 mg a day. no caffiene,no alcohol and no chocalate.

It has been about over ten years that i haven't had an attack.

I have tried avery therapy under the sun both in the UK and the US with no luck. I found my own remedy - No salt in my diet, No caffeine and I use a lot of Ginger and Licorice in every form - It worked for me. Always keep around some Anti-vert pills (only by prescription) Recently I was in an accident and it re-activated it as before, I am undergoing therapy with a Chiropractor for the mussels in my neck and stick to my old diet.
