He had another attack on thurs fri and sat he wanyed me to take him to hosp as he was so weak and nauseous and spinning. They gave him gravol iv and also glucose iv and he felt a bit better after that as he was not spinning and nauseous. The neurologist called and said that she didnt see any neurological disorders atbthis time. Found it real intereating that my husbands dad went deaf in one ear at 15 kelly my hubby went deaf in one ear at 4 and his neice was deaf in one ear at birth. The only difference is that my hubby is now losing hearing in his rt ear as well since his episode back in dec. We have a hearing test at a local hearing aide office comming up next week just to see if that would help him at all. This is absolutely horrible watching him like this. Yesterday he was able to walk without losing his balance. It would be nice to find something thatt could help him alleviate some of the pressure and ringing .

@kimhal. This Menieres disease is so puzzling. A couple of rather dumb questions: does your husband have any kind of warning that an attack is coming? In my case, had noises in my ear - sounded like hamburgers frying. No one talks about antivert (meclizine). Is it no longer used or recommended for motion sickness and dizziness? Also, just in case this is allergy-related, have you considered keeping a food/medicine diary? My Menieres was diagnosed as caused by an unknown allergy, but of course there are many different causes. My sympathy to your husband - how well I remember how horrible those attacks were!!
