The disease is recognized by four main symptoms: <strong>recurrent vertigo attacks<\/strong>, <strong>hearing loss<\/strong>, <strong>tinnitus (ear ringing)<\/strong>, and a <strong>sensation of fullness in the ear<\/strong>. The vertigo attacks last from a few minutes to several hours and are often accompanied by nausea or vomiting. Hearing loss typically starts unilaterally and can worsen over time to become bilateral. Tinnitus can be either continuous or intermittent, and the sensation of fullness in the ear is also a common symptom.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Diagnosis\"><\/span><strong>Diagnosis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The diagnosis is usually made based on the patient&#8217;s symptoms and medical history.
