Grateful -

i had this procedure done at the Shea Clinic in Memphis in '96. for me the beneficial effects were practically overnight. gave me my life back for a while. had to repeat it about 4 months later as it didn't completely last but it was well worth it. gradually, the vertigo aspects of my menieres has burned out - along with a good bit of hearing in my left ear.

hope you have some good results from this.

That's good news Graylocks. So far I've got an increase in vertigo, I'm walking off track and walking into
doorways and such but they said that was to be expected. If I don't see any positive results at all I might
consider the surgery, it helped for almost 15 years with the vertigo the first time but I hope I don't have to.
I'll never forget what I went through after the surgery.

I too have lost over half the hearing in my right ear at many test frequency's. The ringing in the right ear
has been almost unbearable lately, normally I can tone it out if you know what I mean but not lately.
