What To Do If 89 Yr Old Is Suffering From Meniere's Disease And Having Loud Roaring, Out Of The World Experience?
My 89 yr old mom in law suffers from Ménière's disease and had a different spell last night with loud roaring in her head, felt like an out of body experience, passed out for an unknown time but had a bout of uncontrollable sneezing after she came to. A trip to the ER was inconclusive as to the cause and I was wondering if it could have been an attack of meneire's that presented itself in a very different way this time? Thoughts?

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
I think, you have tinnitus and you need ENT sepcialist consultation. Some time due to meniere's disease, patient get internal ear damage and that lead to tinnitus. May be due to surgery for that. Better to consult a ENT specialist for that. Mean time, you can take antihistaminic drugs or sedative to decrease the tinnitus.
Thanks
