A note from the Editor
Let me introduce
myself and tell you why I founded this website. My name is Ray Rice
and in 2004, I found out that I have a rare condition called Meniere’s
Disease. I also have Tinnitus
from prolonged exposure to loud music from playing in heavy metal rock
bands. My 1st Meniere’s attack was in July of 2003. I woke
up at about 3 AM feeling like the room was spinning and felt like I was
dying. The feeling passed in a few minutes and I didn't know what to make
of what had just happened. A few months later, I had another attack
while setting at my desk which lasted a few minutes. I then began to think
I had an ear infection which would go away on it's own. Several
month went by and then I had a really bad attack while my wife was driving late
at night. It felt like I was on a spinning roller coaster which made me
sick to my stomach. The next day I did some research on the internet by
searching for dizziness + spinning and found an article about Meniere’s Disease
which fit my condition to a T.
In January 2004, I made an appointment with a ear, nose and throat specialist MD
and he confirmed that I had Menerie's. By then I was having attacks every
other day or so and it was like being on the worst radical spinning roller
coaster you can imagine. He told me that there was NO CURE or TREATMENT available
and I would have to limit my salt, sugar and eliminate caffeine from my diet (no
more Cokes or Pepsi's). I was told that I would just have to live
with the condition and that I may eventually go deaf.
I then did a lot of research on the internet and found an article by a guy who
calls himself "John
of Ohio". I read his article and he explained how he had
Menerie's Disease, had sought medical help and was told there was no cure or
treatment available. Through much research he came up with a
regiment of vitamins and something called Bioflavoniod Complex which he took
daily which almost eliminated the symptoms of Menerie's Disease. These
were items you could get in a good health food store. I immediately began taking
his regiment and it has CHANGED MY LIFE. (Thank You John of Ohio!) I now rarely have Menerie's symptoms or attacks thanks to a guy by
the name of John of Ohio posting what worked for him on the internet.
That experience has proven
to me how powerful and important information on the internet is. How it
can change your life for the better. It has also shown me you can't
always depend on, trust or believe the medical establishment. I also
found out that there's a lot of con artists on the internet who are ready to
take advantage of you, sell you "cures" which don't work and take your
money. You can read about my experience with a company called T-gone
on my consumer advocate website - BusinessReporter.net
This website has two (2)
area; The main article area for writing articles about medical conditions
and treatments which worked, and the forum area where you can post and exchange
messages. If
there's a category which is not listed, please let us know. We're open to
suggestions and want to make this the best medical support site with the most
information on the Internet!
Thank you for visiting!
