My wife has meniere's disease and had all the problems you mentioned. She went to the WVU Otolaryngology department and saw Dr. Wetmore. He implanted a shunt to relieve pressure about ten years ago, and life has been great for her. If I were you, I would have a Otolaryngology Doctor call him at 304-598-3825. I wear hearing aids that emitt white noise to mask the noise in my head and that works good also.
