Close Dizziness & Vertigo
I have been suffering with Meniere's for about 7 months although I believe I have episodes before. Although the room does not turn I feel like I am on a boat and unstable when walking and making quick turns. I feel so fragile and uncomfortable.
Close Meniere's Disease
Hi, I was diagnosed with Meniere's Disease about 6 months ago. I was put on a diuretic and some ear vitimans and told to start a low salt diet. I am feeling better but not great. I have good and bad days. I feel like I am on a boat and when I walk unstable. I cannot make quick turns without feeling very uncomfortable. Life is not as much fun as it used to be.
Treatments
- Low Salt Diet Working / Worked
- I am only on a diuretic and low salt diet and something called Ear Vite. I don't know if it is working. I am still suffering.
Open Retinal Detachment
Hi, I have an epiretinal membrane and although at this point my vision has not been affected enough for surgery I may at some point need it. I am frightened of the surgery and complications. Has anyone had this surgery and can you tell me a bit about it and any possible complications.
