Meniere's Talk Forums
Our website, Menieres.org was founded to provide a \\home\\ of support for those of you who are suffering from Meniere's Disease, which can be quite dreadful at times. Our primary goal is to provide a warm home on the web for you to lean a shoulder on, share your tips, experiences, and tears with other sufferers. Like we say, you\'re not alone, especially not here. There\'s many other websites out there that provide excellent information on the technical and medical aspects of Meniere's Disease -- plenty of them (see links above). So, instead of duplicating efforts, ours go towards providing a support environment to help you cope with Meniere's Disease now that you know you have it. We sincerely hope you're able to make us your home and get some good out of us.
