At the height of his business career the author became acutely ill. He was diagnosed with Meniere's disease, but the full impact of having Meniere's disease was to come later. He was to lose not only his health, but his career. He began to lose all hope that he would fully recover a sense of wellbeing. But it was his personal spirit and desire to get "back to normal" that made him not give up to a life of Meniere's symptoms of severe vertigo, dizziness and nausea. He decided that you can't put a limit on anything in life. Rather than letting Meniere's disease take over his life, he started to focus on what to do about getting over Meniere's disease symptoms without surgery or drug dependency. Meniere Man believes that if you want to experience a marked improvement in health you can't wait until you feel well to start. You must begin to improve your health now, even though you don't feel like it. The more you do, the more you can do. These days life is different for the Author. He made a full recovery. He does not take any medication. All the physical activities he enjoys these days require a high degree of balance and equilibrium: snowboarding, surfing, hiking, windsurfing, weight training. Following his own advice, he continues to avoid salt, stress, takes vitamins, exercises regularly and maintains a positive, mindful attitude. With a smile and a sense of humor, the Author pens himself as Meniere Man, because, as he says, Meniere's disease is the one thing that changed his life dramatically. The Author is a writer and artist. He is married to a Poet and Essayist. They have two adult children. He enjoys the sea, cooking, travel, the great company of family, friends and his beloved dog Bella.
W. Baber, Specialist: MB ChB, FRCS Inner Ear Disorders, Balance Disorders: "Even a medical person would benefit from the advice given and the experience you have had.""Looking at alternative ways of helping a long standing, ongoing, variable condition can be very helpful." "The cause of Meniere's is unknown, therefore the treatments manifold, that straight medicine alone does not hold all the answers, if indeed hold any at all."" I have received a copy of the book "Let's get better - A memoir of Meniere's disease. I would like to thank the sender and congratulate the author. It is an excellent book which I have already recommended to some of my patients." - Dr Celene McNeill"A few months ago I purchased a book called "Let's Get Better" by Meniere Man on Amazon.com. Not sure exactly who this Meniere Man is - but the book is a good read. He talks about his experience of being diagnosed with Meniere's in his mid forties."- justsimplydizzy.blogspot.He focuses on diet, exercise and alternative treatments in managing his Meniere's. Of all the books I have read, this one has been the most down to earth and helpful." - justsimplydizzy.blogspot.For Menieres sufferers this book is the Bible! I've had Menieres for the past 3 years. I've seen every type of specialist and found none of them helped me as much as this book. Many Thanks to you MM...Judy
