Meniere's Disease...
Posted , 6 users are following.
Hi everyone. First of all English is not my main language so there may be mistakes sorry for that. I am 16 years old and i have Menier's disease for 2 years. My doctor said that Meniere's disease is rare for my age. I am tired of fullness and the ringing in my ear. I am posting this because i need some advice i want to live like a normal person.

I've had this horrid disease since I was 40 (now 54)... My father had it from the age of 26 to the day he died at 78...My partner has had it since the age of 32 (now 55).... His father had it from the age of 28 until the day he died at 75....
It affects us all differently....
It didn't make a jot of difference what I didor didn't do - for the first year I had full blown, lie on the floor, vertigo attacks for 12 hours at a time, every other day - I took pills, cut out salt, saw the top docs, etc.... My dad had clusters of vertigo attacks which lasted 6 months at a time.... Oh and I didn't have a computer then...
Yes MD is fairly rare in 16 year olds but my specialist has seen quite a few 14 to 18 year olds with MD.... just ask to be referred to a specialist to be sure of a correct diagnosis.
I'd like to say that my life with MD has been ok, but it hasn't - I will never work again - have no balance (partly due to surgery) I'm not allowed to drive, and have lost count of the suicidal tendencies because of the "no cure" situation
Contact the Meniere's Society - the have the true facts about MD
