Not yet: Not yet. But there are ways of limiting the severity of the symptoms and possibly reducing the recurrent attacks. Get specialized expertise for this bothersome disorder. And stay tuned.

Suggestion: Some patients with menieres find remarkable relief with 1) elimination of aspartame from their diet (commonly used in diet drinks) and 2) supplementation with controlled release Niacin each day. Well worth a try.

No cure: Meniere's disease should be considered a chronic, lifelong condition with no cure. Treatment may relieve symptoms but doesn't address the underlying abnormal pathophysiology. Hearing loss progresses over time, and often results in permanent loss at all frequencies in the affected ear. This usually occurs over 8-10 years.

Not "cure".."control: The symptoms of Meniere's disease can be treated bit the disease itself cannot be "cured" Anti-vertigo medications can treat the dizzyness . The noise in the ears is more difficult to deal with. See an Otolaryngologist for help. Your PCP Primary Care Provider can refer you
