Hi! I have been suffering from Meniere's for about ten years now. When it first started I would get an attack once or twice a year. Less, once I managed my sodium. When I got COVID in 2021 I started getting them monthly. Sometimes weekly. I have been watching my sodium, low sugar, no dairy, no gluten, no caffeine, and no alcohol. I try to get seven hours of sleep and watch my stress but I teach fifth grade, so that's hard. Lately I have started getting these really short spinning, vertigo attacks but they go away really quickly when I shut my eyes. Does that mean my symptoms are getting worse or am I entering the burnout phase? My hearing is basically gone in my left ear. I have been on the triage list at UCLA medical center since November. The doctors in Las Vegas just tell me to eat low sodium. That's it. I am on Umbervly and Qulipta to treat vestibular migraines. The Umbevly seems to help if I get it down before I throw up. Sorry for the long post. I am hoping someone has experienced these little vertigo attacks and that is a sign that I am either getting better at managing my vertigo or entering the burnout phase. Thank you!
