I have just added 5 messages from people who have either reduced the severity of their symptoms or now live Meniere’s Disease symptom free. Just click on the Meniere’s Success Stories tab at the top of the page to read. For the most part these people used dietary changes and changes in lifestyle to combat their condition.
This is the one of the most common themes but there are many contributing factors to consider beyond diet and lifestyle when you want to overcome Meniere’s.
Discussed are surgical options for people with Meniere’s Disease, such as an endolymphatic shunt implant and vestibular nerve section, and the implications.
Unfortunately, in my case surgery wasn’t successful. However, within a year of the failed surgery I was able to live free from 95% of the symptoms of Meniere’s disease for 10 years with lifestyle changes and dietary changes. The surgery was in 2001.
In addition to this, since 2012 I have been completely free of the symptoms of Meniere’s disease. It is now 2020.
Surgery for Meniere’s disease is indeed an option. For most, a last resort. But there may more ways to beat this condition, whether it be by managing your symptoms enough to live a normal life again or freeing yourself completely by finding and dealing with your own individual root cause(s).
Treatments and alternative treatments for Menieres, such as diuretics, blood flow enhancers, acupuncture, tranquilizers such as valium, Chlorella, ginkgo and the general approach in Japan are discussed in part 5 of Mike’s Meniere’s Story
Also discussed is the effect of allergies, air pressure and the weather on Meniere’s.
So far items discussed have been how alcohol affects people with Meniere’s, how diet is a factor, vertigo, the medications: stemitil, meclizine, Serc (betahistine) and hydroclorothiazide.
In this latest post I talk about the unpredictability of Menieres and how physical fitness can possibly have a huge positive effect.
I have just posted a new message from Andrew who has beaten his Meniere’s Disease symptoms. In his case he used supplements.
To read Andrew’s story and that of many more click Meniere’s Success Stories” at the top of the page…..
Note: Supplementation has proven very effective in allowing the body to suppress the symptoms of Meniere’s disease. How is that possible?
Using supplements is neither a cure nor a treatment.
Rather, the right quality supplements can support the immune system enough for it to deal with the inflammation causing Meniere’s symptoms.
The most common factor that prevents this is the fact that “quality” supplementation is often not cheap and many supplements are poor quality, often with fillers meaning what it says on the bottle may not be quite what is in the supplement.
However, supplements or not, it is still possible to overcome the symptoms of vertigo, dizziness, brain fog and tinnitus completely. Many can even restore their hearing, something we are often told is impossible.
We now know that you can find your root causes and triggers and deal with them so you can truly say in your case:
