What Is Meniere's Disease?
3. Vertigo
Among the most common symptoms of Meniere’s disease is vertigo. This is a condition where the patient will experience a sensation that everything around them is spinning. The sensation can last from 20 minutes, up to several hours. The symptom can start suddenly without warning, and it can also stop just as abruptly.
The sensation happens because the organs that help us to balance are affected. Vertigo will also sometimes cause the patient to become nauseous. Attacks of vertigo can make it very difficult for the patient to do anything, and severe cases can have a considerable negative impact on the quality of the patient’s life.
