Menieres caused By Allergies

If menieres is caused by allergies in certain people, what would be the approach to it? I've personally had 2 episodes recurring around spring time (balance/ear issues). With a migraine history that usually hits in March. If the trigger is weather/allergies/pressure. How is this rectified?

Anyone in the NY area with this ?

What doctors have you seen? which to avoid? what are your triggers, and what has been your progression?

I've made some post regarding my history recently, but more I've been suspecting the potential of a sinuplasty contributing to the development of meneires/hydrops? 3 months after my sinuplasty I had my first episode of LF loss. Any correlation? Anyone experience something similar?

Migraine background:

5+ years of seasonal migraine with classic rainbow visual aura, occurring reliably at every season change. Would at times get periodic dizziness/balance as id related to my migraine episodes..boat, sway, float etc

January 2025:

Isolated mild low-frequency sensorineural hearing loss in the right ear, diplacusis, pressure

1/13/25 audiogram attached shows measurable LF loss/mild

hearing resolved and dizziness persisted

Feb 2025: classic migraine with rainbow aura...? Unusual time of year for me

Spring/Summer 2025: I expect my regular migraine around this time, but it did not happen.. instead I got

disequilibrium / off-balance sensation. Episodes lasted days to weeks and resolved as the season calmed. No hearing events...

November 2025: Migraine + rainbow aura with hearing sensitivity that lasted couple weeks then resolution. Again unusual time of year for me to get a migraine.

Dec-March 2025/2026: One full clear winter — complete resolution of all symptoms despite poor sleep and skipped meals at times.

April 5, 2026: Current Flare

Recurrence disequilibrium (now 3+ weeks long).

Background balance sensation

Holographic / disconnected step feeling when walking

Dizziness/type could evolve day to day. Some days much better, some worse/worse different

Mild headaches occasionally with them

Decided to get a hearing test (attached) 4/15/26

100% normal

April 28 (day ~23 of flare): new mild low-frequency hearing loss in the same right ear (can not hear distant bass through the wall). Another audiogram 4/28/25

You can see a slight Lf drift at 250 (less than mild, but in real life, it sounds more dramatic than it reads. I'm a music person. I tested my hearing. There is a deficit as it relates to low frequency outside the "testing" range

low-frequency hum in the affected ear

Diplacusis (pitch shift: 242 Hz in left ear sounds like 248–250 Hz in right ear).

Pressure in the affected ear

How did everyone's meneires start? Was it hearing loss first? If so, how frequently were the hearing episodes happening. My 2 hearing episodes were a year and 3 months apart. Any other thoughts?
