What Is Meniere's Disease?
8. Diagnosis
After a brief physical exam and asking some questions about your medical history, your doctor will likely need to refer you to a specialist. This will include tests that will help to rule out the possibility of other symptoms. Tests that will help to diagnose Meniere’s disease will include balance tests, and hearing tests.
Doctors may also want to use imaging technology to get a look at what is happening inside the patient’s ears. This includes posturography which helps experts determine which parts of their balance apparatus the patient uses most. Electrocochleography can also be used, which helps experts look for an abnormal buildup of fluids.
