Just returning from Shea Clinic in Memphis had profusions for ringing , has helped greatly. Ringing down 85 percent .A lot of people getting profusions for balance and ringing. Truthfully 3 straight days is little tough but worth results. This is great place where a lot of people are getting help, managing this disease. Coming back today ringing stopped but really encouraged by two men I met down their and how they are  living Kevin and Jimmy you both lifted me up. By both your actions and words seeing you beat this disease. This morning their was a teenage girl talking about sickness, anxiety, and depression go with this disease broke my heart. I wobblled over to tell her she could beat this disease and encouraged her . In conclusion we all need encouragement in fighting this disease, offering help, success stories, and Encouragement Right Kevin and Jimmy.

      Steroid and medicine entered directly in your ears. One type for balance and another for ringing.

    I’m treated by Dr Shea for Menieres also. My problem is with vertigo and hearing loss in both ears. Have had three rounds of intratympanic perfusion in the right ear and one round of streptomycin perfusion, My hearing in right ear has increased by 17 decimals. In left ear I have had two rounds of steroid perfusions. I have not had any vertigo episodes for several months. Still have dizziness, but able to cope with it. I do enjoy talking with others there, you feel like family. We do learn from each other. Hopefully your ringing stays away.
