Meniere’s Disease and Nutritional Supplements

The Menieres-Help.Com website that this blog belongs to offers information and support to people who suffer from Meniere’s Disease (Syndrome) and all the related symptoms such as vertigo, dizziness, tinnitus and hearing problems etc.

We have all lived with Menieres personally and been lucky enough to rid ourselves of the symptoms using the highest quality nutritional supplements and adjusting our lifestyles. It may sound hard to believe and this may not work for everyone. But for the vast majority we have had contact with, this has worked wonders.

Below I talk about my experience with Meniere’s Disease and using these supplements. If you are hard of hearing or just don’t fancy the idea of looking at my ugly mug for more than a few minutes, there is a transcript below. For more information go to the main site: www.menieres-help.com

Hi everybody, My name’s Mike and I’ve lived with Meniere’s Disease for over 13 years. For the first 7 years of that, you’ll know if you’ve got Menieres, was”Hell”.

For the last 6 years I’ve been symptom free, and uh, there is a very good reason for that. You see until that time, I think I’d tried virtually everything possible. I’d tried all the medicines and therapies, and I’d even tried very expensive surgery, which was totally unsuccessful. Basically nothing worked. And uh, (coughs) excuse me, I’m not used to talking into a camera, so you’ll have to excuse my mannerism…uh, anyway… around June 2002, despite the fact that I was extremely skeptical, I tried this nutritional program and basically it changed my life! ( a regime of nutritional supplements )

What you’ve gotta understand is we’re talking about vitamins here, vitamin supplements, and (laughs) until then, I had absolutley no interest or desire, or certainly no belief in the benefits of nutritional or vitamin supplements. I thought they were utter…a complete and utter waste of time and money. And to be honest with you I still think a lot of them are……….but the ones I did take..they did it for me.

So, you know, I didn’t trust this idea one little bit at the time. But if you’ve got Meniere’s yourself you’ll know just how desperate you can get and you’ll basically try anything….when you get to that point……but you know the way I looked at it, I felt I’d tried everything..and this was just a last resort….I thought I had nothing else to lose….except a little bit more money, which I didn’t really feel like losing at the time to be honest with you.

So you know I went into this with really no confidence, no belief that it would actually work, but just tried it anyway….and uh, thankfully it worked!..you know, simple as that, it worked….got rid of all the symptoms…I mean it took time….but I really could feel, even at the beginning, when I had my ups and downs, I could really feel I was on the mend.

The vertigo attacks became much shorter, and eventually disappeared altogether. The other symptoms, well like, the fact that you’re always tired, the constant dizziness…gone, just gone…and that was in a few days to be honest with you.

Suddenly I had this huge amount of energy. I mean any energy would have been nice, you know, after going so long with no energy and being so tired and depressed about it all..any energy would have been great but suddenly I had bags of it…it was fantastic….and the pressure in my left ear and all down the side of my face..that was all…just gone….fantastic. And the brain fog,the fact that I couldn’t concentrate…suddenly I could basically.

… I had my life back basically…that’s the point. I went from being as low as I possibly could…to basically being very very energetic and I had my life back. That’s what we all want isn’t it? We want our life back.

Well, about 2 years after I started these supplements I decided to join this support group, that had actually advised me, or recommended these supplements to me in the first place…and they actually do a lot more than that.., but you know I decided to join them and help them out….and since then I’ve learned so much. I mean firstly there are a lot of other things you can do to help yourselves..and it’s not as hopeless as you think…there really are a lot of things you can do…

….and secondly I’ve seen so many other people get their lives back just like me..and you know a good number of those people were just as skeptical as I was…and you know, it’s fantastic to see these people go from as low as we are when we’ve got Meniere’s and to get rid of all their symptoms and get their life back…you know the feedback we get is fantastic and it makes you feel it’s worthwhile trying. (to help support people with Meniere’s Disease)

Well..okay, what’s the point of this video, well, the problem is, the only shame of it all, and it’s a massive shame really……is that the vast majority of people who hear about these supplements we take.., they don’t try it!…You know I guess their skeptisism gets the better of them, and understandably so. I mean it took me 18 months to actually try it, and then I only tried it because I was so desperate. So you know, these people probably don’t want to spend the money on supplements, they just never try it. And it’s a real shame because they are missing a chance of possibly getting rid of this..(Meniere’s Disease symptoms)

…..So anyway, if you’d like to get the information on the kinds of things we use, and lots of other helpful information, just go to the website below (Menieres-Help.Com) and I’ll see you there. You take care of yourselves.
