Re: Post op questions from a Menieres sufferer

[Guest guest]

I was diagnosed as having bilateral Menieres, had a shunt in my left ear and

then CI's in both ears. I have not had the full eardrum feeling in either ear

since the CI insertion operation. That may be, however, that after 15 years of

Menieres spells, the symptoms went away on their own. I hope you get at least

as good of results as I have.

Post op questions from a Menieres sufferer

I have bilateral Menieres disease. The ear I am about to have implanted feels

" under water " most of the time. What happens after surgery? Do most of these

physical issues with menieres disappear? I have read about tinnitus and the

random results in that area. What about the " full eardrum " feeling?

I have bilateral menieres and now I have bilateral CI's . The fullness in both

ears is gone. The tinnitus in my right ear is gone even when not wearing the

processor. The left ear only has tinnitus when not wearing the CI and even

without the CI has reduced substantially since the implant surgery. Good luck!
