Meneire's Disease part 2

   After trying different medications & receiving some relief in my ear, but still having vertigo at least twice a week, falling & near falls (family members caught me before going down) my ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat specialist) informed me that the Meneire's was not uncontrolled if I was still having vertigo twice a week.  That was a shock & a bit of a let down for me. 

  He then informed me that I am down to one more medication to try before having to move to injections into my ear & proceeded to explain it to me.  I think I turned a couple colors of white.  I hope I never come to that.

  As of now, the medication is working.  Thank God!!!!  The ringing in my ears, can not be fixed.  But the vertigo is less, still happens for time to time.  I have sprained my ankle big time & trying to recover from that.  It was sprained from rolling it, not a dizzy spell & passing out.   Now in PT for that, hoping for no surgery.
