I've had two MRI's in the last eight months, along with many other tests trying to figure out the cause of my dizziness/balance problem, but like you, they come back as normal. You would think an MRI would show something wrong with the inner ear when it comes to this issue since the inner ear controls these functions. So far taking Ativan takes the edge off the dizziness for a while since it suppresses the vestibular system.
I'm trying to get into Mayo Clinic to have this figured out, but so far they have been reviewing the tests I've already had this last year, and haven't called back with an appointment date. Good luck to you, being dizzy is terrible.

Please check out these two websites - there are many others as well. I have done enough research to believe my mercury fillings is the cause of my Meneres. You have to go to Holistic Dentist to have the fillings removed safely to keep from being exposed to addition mercury, and it is expensive. You also need to go to a good natural doctor (I found one that has a college degree in natural health), to have the mercury detoxed from your body. It will not be a cheap road, but in my case will be around $2,000 to have all of my fillings removed safely and then to be detoxed. To me it will be worth every penny to get rid of the Meneres. I will let you all know the results, when I have completed the process. I get the right side done on Dec. 7th and the left side on Dec. 14th, but I probably need a little time to detox as well.
I found most dentist will remove your mercury fillings, but do not use the correct safety messures to keep you from being exposed to even more mercury. The natural doctor I use is still working with a patient to try to remove all of the mercury after a regular dentist removed his fillings. He is very sick from it. Some people are more sensitive to mercury than others.
I would check into this is you have mercury feelings yourself. Let me know what your results are as well.
Thanks!

Thanks for responding. I have had the dizziness constantly unless I take Dramamine 2. I can not move my head 2 inch without vomiting horribly unless I do take the Dramamine. I have an appointment with two different specialist, but it takes a while to get in. I have gone to a naturalpathic doctor that has a college degree in natural medicine. He got me in right away. He does muscle testing and it is very acuate. (He cleared my mom of cancer.) He tested and said that the fluid in my ear is not draining properly and the my estationary tube had calcium deposits that was part of the drainage problem and that the fluid in my ear is not a healthy fluid. He gave me a couple of things, but told me not to stop taking the Dramamine for a least a week to give the problem time to correct. I think I will wait a little longer than that, because as you said, being dizzy is terrible. I have to lay still, no TV and reading. I just lay there or I'm vomiting horribly. I wish you the best. I will let you know how it turns out on this end and hope you will do the same.
