Inner Ear Fluids Imbalances in Meniere's Disease
Between Blood and CranioSacral Fluid

Abstract
Background
The human skull is a semi-closed hydraulic system securing the brain, blood and cerebrospinal fluid. Eliminating the brain with unremarkable MRI diagnosing Meniere's disease, if one of the two fluid capacities is raised, the other must be lowered. Based on one thousand MD patients studied, it is hypothesized that approximately ninety one percent have normal pressure hydrocephalus caused by cerebellar tonsillar ectopia resulting from whiplash/concussion trauma. Idiopathic intercranial pressure admits too much CSF into inner ear via internal auditory canal, lowering blood supply by as much as forty percent.

Methods
Detailed case histories were taken with an emphasis on head and neck injuries an average of fifteen years prior to onset of Meniere's symptoms. Pattern was established utilizing thermography and Burcon Cervical Specific 10 Step Protocol, determining when and where to adjust. Upper cervical adjustment listings were obtained by Blair x-ray analysis. Lower cervical listings were determined by Pierce Results.

Results
One thousand MD patients were followed for a minimum of one year, checked a minimum of twelve times. On a scale of zero to ten using a patient questionnaire, vertigo, aural fullness and nausea improved by eighty percent or more in 91% percent of cases. Audiogram tests demonstrated hearing improved by sixty percent or more in 30% of cases. Significant improvements in tinnitus were 19%. Negative finding was an increase in severity or frequency of headaches in 2%.

Conclusion
Intracranial hypertension may represent the shared pathogenetic step explaining the large epidemiological comorbidity between migraine and vestibular symptoms, conceptualized as vestibular migraine.
The ears processing centers architecture is designed genetically, and subject to modification by stresses presented during development, rendering some more vulnerable to disease. Traumas to the head and neck, concussions and whiplash injuries, set the stage for significant problems, an average of fifteen years later.
