Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi...diagnosed with menieres 9yrs ago. Last 12/18 months started to have balance problems which as got worse. I can't bend, look up, need help crossing road can't move head side to side due to dizziness and felling. Etc. Seem to have no balance at all. I'm constantly stumbling. Lost alot of hearing in both ears, constant tinnitus. Sorry to go on and moan, I just feel so alone and wondered if anyone our there is having same problems with balance.

My whole life has been turned upside down.
I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.

Lost alot of hearing in both ears, but the strange thing is that loud noises causes me discomfort which I've been advised is due to the meniere's!!!!! So odd

I also experience some degree of unsteadiness or queasiness after turning my head quickly such as when looking to. change lanes when driving.
So far that has not precipated an episode of vertigo but I feel it could. Sometimes I take meclizine when I'm feeling a little queasy and it usually helps.
