We live with Meniere's disease every day. We are
experienced and understand the frustrations involved.
Once you have lived with such a debilitating
condition as Meniere's Disease, you are rather reluctant
to try many more remedies. Certainly you learn to
distinguish and avoid any "miracle cures".
Through research for this site, I found many medical
sites: some not so helpful, some that had extremely good
content. Because of my nursing background, I can pull
out helpful and practical information that I think
people would trust.
My goal was to write in "an easy to
understand" way. Not to insult your intelligence,
but so that you can use the information without further
research. It will allow you to feel confident and also
to help you understand what you face in the medical
world.
I am a nurse. I have learned to interpret" the
complicated words and procedures that we use in the
medical community.
Where does the information come from?
I have gathered all the research material from
"mainstream" journals and web sites, such as
The New England Journal of Medicine, Johns Hopkins
Medical Centre, etc. I use some doctors' information and
those I chose very carefully.
You won't find herbal remedies here as I think they
create problems for non-medical people. Most of us just
don't know how to use these herbs safely. I think we
forget that they are the source and basis for so many
drugs.
I also look at everything from the perspective of our
immune system. Maybe my idea is too simplistic, but my
basic belief is that our immune systems are very capable
of looking after our health. The only thing we must do
is to nurture them carefully, because sometimes they
become overloaded. So my basic thinking is that we
should "fix" our immune systems and then feed
them correctly.
That, of course, is the challenge. It's difficult to
know just what to feed them, in what proportions and
where to find the best ingredients. Then of course, we
need to ensure that our bodies can use what we give
them.
Sounds complicated? It's a bit challenging, but not
impossible. If that is your intent you will find this
web site and the health articles very helpful.
