Dr. Adam Zuber answered

Specializes in Neurology

Meniers disease: This seems like early Meniers disease and tinnitis(ringing in the ears). It is possibly worse in the evening because of excessive salt and caffeine intake and tinnitis is more evident in a quiet surrounding. Decrease your salt and cafeine intake and if symptoms persist get evaluated by an ENT specialist. MRI is normally not done just for tinnitis.
