I Am Affected By Meniere's Disease

Tom 55 Yrs Old,life Destroyed By Meniers

Written on December 24th, 2012
I started having wierd spinning sensation at work one day. Over the next few painfull years, ambulance rides,hospital stays and my life going down the tube. They finally figured out it was meniers. They tried the tubes and the machine which helped me get a few more years out of my life. I now live out home, deaf in my right ear, constanstaly nauseated,migrains,depression, vertigo and a total recluse.Thank Jesus for my wife who takes care of me like a baby, I now live without hope of anything ever getting better.I truly hope that no one else out there is suffering, but I know there is. i feel my diagnosis was to little to late and am being seen by a supposed to be expert in this field.
