HOW IT IS DIAGNOSED
Meniere’s disease is usually diagnosed with a series of diagnostic tests. Our staff cannot rule out other conditions without assessing various symptoms individually.
Diagnosing Meniere’s disease may require:
Hearing tests
Balance tests
CT scans
Once these diagnostic tests are completed, our staff can rule out other potential causes and provide you with an accurate diagnosis.
TREATMENT
Unfortunately, Meniere’s disease is not curable. There is also little relief for hearing loss. However, there are several promising treatments available that address both frequency and severity of vertigo.
If you are experiencing vertigo as a symptom of Meniere’s disease, then our staff may prescribe medication. These include motion sickness and anti-nausea medications. There are also several noninvasive therapies, such as hearing aids, balance rehabilitation, and positive pressure therapy.
