Other Meniere's disease sufferers may notice a fluctuating hearing loss and feel unsteady all day long for prolonged periods. Many of these attacks have a sudden onset with no warning. So it's difficult to be prepared. It's also very scary for anyone around the sufferer. Dizziness is not quite the same as vertigo.
Dizziness is more like lightheadedness.
It's not nearly as severe in its balance problems as is vertigo. Vertigo, often the most debilitating symptom of Meniere's disease, forces the sufferer to lie down. Vertigo attacks can lead to severe nausea, vomiting, and sweating and again, come with little or no warning. Moreover the noise itself is very irritating. That causes stress.
