Menierre's is diagnosed by ruling out everything else. It's an auto-immune disease, of unknown origin.<br /><br />One of the tests I underwent was for positional vertigo, as Danna described. Your symptoms reminded me of this disease.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure your symptoms can be solved pretty simply with daily doses of gravy, but you might want to see an ENT, as I'm not a doctor.<br /><br />Good luck.NonymousGoatsePantsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25324039.post-47347948298252022712014-03-21T06:25:34.633-07:002014-03-21T06:25:34.633-07:00You need to submit this to that series in the NY T...You need to submit this to that series in the NY Times where people write in and play Web MD. Eventually, someone's always right, and it's usually some kind of rare foot fungus-slash-mitochondrial infection that only one in one million doctors has ever seen. On a more serious note, that sucks.

But I per...I don't know about the other stuff. But I periodically get vertigo which is worse when I'm lying down. My ENT diagnosed it as BPPV. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benign_paroxysmal_positional_vertigo<br />A sure sign of it is if you get someone else to look at your eyes when you feel like the room is spinning. Your eyes will have a nystagmus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathologic_nystagmus<br /><br />There is a specific set of movements you can do called the Epley maneuver(you're supposed to have a doctor do it) as soon as you notice the dizziness start. But I find that these episodes usually start in the middle of the night, and I can't wake my husband up and kick him out of bed to do this maneuver. The movements are supposed to move the crystal to an area of the ear that doesn't make you as dizzy. <br />Any way, if this is what you have, the bits of crystal usually dissolve (for me within a week). It does suck. Sometimes, for the first couple of days I can't drive because moving my head around quickly (like to check my mirrors) causes the spinning.
