I have meniere’s disease and feel the key to controlling it is sodium restricted diet aroumd 1200 mg daily. The first year had 6 attacks. They were horrible but done in 2 hours. Half were next day after restaurant food (salty). I don’t tolerate HCTZ (diuretic) very well but rarely use it. My VNG/ecog were markedly positive for left ear meniere’s but I have bilateral symptoms now. Tinnitus is a nuisance but I have maintained hearing except bilateral high frequency stable loss over past two years. I already do not drink alcohol or caffeine so no problem skipping these. The low sodium diet starts at the grocery and requires great discipline but I am testament to controlling this disease with strict low salt compliance. Almost three years in and I function normally.

What was some of the foods you ate? I am having trouble with the sodium intake.
