Hi all, I was recently diagnose with menier's after a long year of vertigo, ear pressure, tinnitus and anemia. I went to several specialist in The USA and also in Mex. got all the hearing test and MRI but they cant find much. I started a low sodium diet no caffeine no alcohol, and gluten free. I feel no changes in my symptoms. I have tried 6 months o betahistine and diuretics didn't work. Now I'm completely gluten free and  i have some days better than others but nothing seems to work. I don't feel me.  What else can I do? There is something else I could check like vitamins I'm currently taking Ginkgo Biloba as a supplement. how can I find out why Menier's?

Hi I just recently had being diagnose with Meniers after a long year of vertigo, brain fog, ear pressure, tinnitus and anemia. I went to several doctors in USA and Mexico. Did all the test for my ear/ brain, MRI and nothing comes up. The last doctor gave me a combo with betahistine a diuretic and an anticonvulsive. I almost past out.  Nothing seems to calm my symptoms. I started a gluten free diet and I have some days better than others but I'm completely lost. I don't know where to go next.  What should I do next? 

It's not allergies.   Segments of the protein in corn, yeast, and dairy resemble segments if the protein gluten.  Our antibodies get triggered on the segments no matter where they are from.  Then the antibodies get really confused and attack our own cells which have segments resembling the  protein gluten in the cell membrane.  Hence, Celiac is an autoimmune disease. Did you have a test for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)?   Symptoms of hypothyroidism can be very subtle in the early stages.  

All of my other labs are normal though, CBC, metabolic, dexa scan, vitamin levels, ema, giladin peptide igg iga, etc.  Could other allergies like corn or yeast raise this? Should I have allergy testing done for other things? 

@thejayland10, The fact that your tTg IgA is slightly elevated after ten years gluten free suggests there's something going on.  We want all the antibodies to go away.  As long as they are around, our body is in a state of inflammation that can have long term deleterious effects outside of the gastrointestinal tract. Have you had your thyroid checked recently?   Hashimoto's thyroiditis can raise tTg IgA antibodies without gluten. Maybe you're getting gluten in your diet or from shampoo/toiletries.  Maybe you've developed an intolerance to other foods, like dairy, oats, corn, or yeast.  One my vitamins used brewer's yeast for a B12 source which, of course, made me ill.  One really has to be a bit of a detective.   Do think about giving the AIP diet a try.  The AIP diet is strict at first, allowing the immune system to calm down.  Later more foods are added back in slowly, checking for possible reactions.
