I’ve been seeing my ENT had audiology testing a neck MRI waiting for appt to review.

It doesn't sound like Meniere's which is true vertigo and absolutely different and lasts hours and completely debilitates you - think unable to walk. Also with Meniere's there are other symptoms. Tinnitus is the obvious one. A feeling of fullness in the ear, the vertigo and hearing loss, usually initially one-sided. I do have Meniere's and I occasionally have those off balance moments, but just ignore them. They may be related to the Meniere's but I would suspect as a secondary symptom to the tinnitus. I don't have true vertigo anymore - it can go into remission and did with me. It is now a very rare occurrence. I now have a cochlear implant on one side, hearing aid on the other. I do think that with the ears and balance being so interconnected that those of us with ear problems are probably not surprised by the balance issues as well.
