Greeting's Kind Folk,
A dear kind reader has offered what I consider an interesting question, one asked through the key word system. These are the key words used to search of a blog and it was written as such; "Terminal Meniere's Disease". You see, while checking daily stats, maps, and numbers, I will occasionally see a question or note this way. I do attempt to respond and or engage, and I enjoy this very much. So, my dear Kind Reader, I will reply only based on all of my experience's as a patient with Meniere's. Dear Kind Reader, I will say that I know there are more like me out there - but I have not met him or her.
My Guest, it is my belief that it will not be the disease itself that will take me to the point of being terminal. I think of the so many times I have fallen and didn't break my neck. I also think of the times I have walked in the parking lot at the Store With The Big Red Dot and get damned near smashed because I didn't hear the truck and car.
For me, my terminal thing comes when I lose all balance and hearing. I have good balance on my right side only. The right good bad ear hole to the brain, will soon go with out sound, an aid comes soon. My left ear is deaf and I also have a BAHA, A Bone Anchored Hearing Aid. An implant site near my left ear that has had over one dozen surgeries and procedure's can sometimes be scary, I mean, so it might could go terminal during surgery. But, Folks, all of the above are so rare, but as any other ill-prepared surgical team could have life happen, life could happen with me.
I have not read or heard of any such terminal link to Meniere's Disease. No, it's not that the damned Meniere's Disease, that creates a terminal case here. It is what we all as patients can do and take for as long as we can, with our Medical Professionals at our sides doing their best, just to come to a point that we're unable to go any further. Then, this could be a terminal scenario.
Dear Guest, I ask that you please consult with your doctor about this question and idea. If you have access to clergy or a Spiritual One, I ask that you please consult with them too..
Prayer's for peace.
