Prognosis
Most patients start with hearing loss and tinnitus. Patients may or may not then develop the complete clinical profile of meniere's disease (MD).[3]
Symptoms tend to get worse over time regardless of medical intervention. MD goes into periods of remission that are variable in duration and frequency.[3] Disproportionately greater hearing loss in low frequencies during early stages is often accompanied by disproportionately greater loss in speech comprehension than would be anticipated by degree of sensitivity. The progression of hearing loss over time is unpredictable for the individual patient.
