What is menieres?
Menier's disease is a life-disturbing disorder/disease of the inner ear that is characterized by a triad of symptoms, including severe vertigo, hearing loss, and tinnitus (ringing in the ear). The exact cause of the disease is unknown, however it has to do with an imbalance of the endolymphatic fluid located in the cochlea (the sensory organ of hearing).

Is tinnitus related to vertigo?
Yes. Tinnitus can often be associated with vertigo. There are several conditions including Meniere's syndrome, acoustic neuroma, middle ear dysfunction and others, which can result in both conditions.
What are some symptoms of hearing problems?
The most obvious symptom of hearing problems is hearing loss; other symptoms that may accompany it include tinnitus, vertigo, and leakage of fluid from the ear. Leaking fluid may indicate an injury or infection, which may possibly be responsible for the hearing loss.
What are the symptoms of Menieres disease?
People with Menieres Disease suffer from dizzy spells, vertigo, nausea, hearing loss, and inner ear dizziness.
Tinnitus vertigo and gradual hearing loss typify what disorder?
Tinnitus and vertigo, two common neurological complaints, often challenge the physician's ability with respect to possible etiology. Objective tinnitus can result from an abnormally patent eustachian tube, from tetanic contractions of the muscles of the soft palate, or from vascular abnormalities within the head or neck. Subjective tinnitus refers to lesions involving the external ear canal, tympanic membrane, ossicles, cochlea, auditory nerve, brainstem, and cortex. As many as 50% of patients with tinnitus do not exhibit associated hearing loss; in these patients, the cause of the tinnitus is rarely identified. An illusion of movement is specific for vestibular system disease--a peripheral or central location depending upon associated audiologic and neurologic symptoms, respectively. However, a presyncopal, light-headed sensation is most commonly associated with diffuse cerebral ischemia: in the young patient, this may be caused by a hyperventilation syndrome; in the aged individual, this can result from diffuse atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease and decreased cardiac output. Postural and gait imbalance associated with acute vertigo indicates a unilateral peripheral vestibular or a central vestibular lesion; if vertigo is absent, either a cerebellar, proprioceptive, or bilateral peripheral vestibular lesion is likely. Transient oscillopsia suggests unilateral peripheral vestibular lesions. Permanent oscillopsia indicates a bilateral peripheral vestibular lesion or--in the absence of severe vertigo--brainstem or cerebellar damage.
What is a disease in which the amount of fluid in the inner ear increases intermittently producing attacks of vertigo a fluctuating hearing loss and ringing in the ear?
Minear's disease
What symptoms can be caused as the acoustic neuroma grows?
can cause vertigo and balance difficulties. If the acoustic nerve grows large enough to press against the cochlear nerve, then hearing loss and a ringing (tinnitus) in the affected ear will usually occur
Can having tooth crowns installed on upper front teeth cause symptoms of vertigo hearing loss and tinnitus in one ear only?
I have 2 crowns on my top two teeth, but no problems. You should talk to your doctor or dentist about the possibilities of a connection.
