  1. Hi Trents, yes classic Alzheimer's is caused by plaque build up but the diagnosis of Alzheimer's often covers other types of cognitive decline including mild cognitive impairment, short term memory loss and vascular dementia which are all of the issues that my Mom has. She does not show any plaque build up on MRI.
  2. Thank you all for your feedback. I did see the Consultant Otolaryngologist today and unfortunately she is not doing any research into potential functional immune or inflammatory mechanism that could be driving Ménière’s. My Mom was diagnosed with Meniere's at my age (58) and then did develop Alzheimer's in her 70's. The consultant mentioned that my Mom's A...
  3. Hi Trents, Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I do have concerns about NCGS. Would this show up if I did the endoscopy testing?

I have just ordered a gut microbiome genome test and it will be interesting to see what my current balance of microbes are. After I finish diagnosis I will definitely go gluten...
  7. I am a 58yo female and I have recently been diagnosed with Ménière’s and I know I have some inflammation. Having researched Menier’s from a functional medicine perspective there are a number of clinicians who see a strong link with celiac/gluten sensitivity. I am looking to eliminate triggers as regular vertigo attacks are completely debilitating and brain...
