Hi all!
I'm new to this group, so please forgive me if I'm asking stupid questions.
I would like to know where can I find some information about patients of the 
disease of Meniere? (M�ni�re spelt correctly if you receive the accents)
I'm specially interested in experiences with prism glasses. Do they really help?
(I'm not sure if this disease has another name in English)
Best wishes,
Alwin

Hi! Those of us with Meniere's tend to get together in several places
on the 'Net. Check out the dizzinews list mentioned in Jim Chinnis'
earlier posting on Balance - it's a mailing list of dizzy people, most
of whom have Meniere's. Also the Usenet newsgroup alt.support.tinnitus
has a fair number of us reading it, and from time to time we have a
little discussion on some aspect of Meniere's. There are a number of
web sites including the Vestibular Disorders Association, several
university medical school's with interested in vestibular disorders, a
huge number of web resources on deafness and hearing loss (check out
xalachua's earlier listing - Omar keeps good track of it). So you can
pick and choose whether you want information about the balance disorder
aspect, the hearing loss aspect, or personal experiences of Meniere's
patients.

I'd be happy to share specifics, email me.
