Hello Doctor,
I have been experiencing symptoms suggestive of Meniere’s Disease, including episodes of vertigo, occasional hearing disturbance, and earlier I had some noise sensation in the ear.
Currently, most of my reports (MRI, EEG, VNG) are normal.
I would like your guidance regarding the best course of treatment.
Kindly advise on the next steps
Thank you.

You will have to take a consultation first before self diagnosing it as MD
A pure tone audiometry report has to be done first with proper ear examination
Hello Sir.
Miniere's disease is a little tough to treat completely.
But there are definitely ways to control the symptoms. I understand it'd be very bothersome for you, but medical management works great for controlling the disease.
If you could tell me how frequently you get the episodes, I could guide you better.
Next Steps
I would suggest you stick to one doctor, whoever you're comfortable with, for your course of treatment, because the disease course is long and repetitive. We can set an appointment (online/ in person), if that's what you'd like.
Health Tips
Reduce salt intake for now. That should help a little in reducing severity and frequency of your episodes.
Please elaborate your complains as to what hearing disturbance do you have? What kind of vertigo episodes do you face- frequency, duration, any aggravating/relieving factors / any other associated symptoms ? Do you also face ringing in ear?
Did you get a pure tone audiometry done ?
All these basic information is crucial before forming the diagnosis for meniers disease.
Meniere's Disease is little tough.
First get done pure tone audiometry.
Please get done physical examination for proper diagnosis and treatment.
