The key is A. Meniere’s disease. [SNHL vertigo andtinnitus lasting 30 minutes are consistent with Meniers disease. Here attacks are episodic that is symptoms resolves but hearing loss is progressive. In acoustic neuroma hearing loss is not episodic. Otosclerosis also not episodic and conductive type. Benign positional vertigo, no hearing loss and vertigo with sharp posture change. Unilateral loss of vestibular function and hearing associated with nausea and vomiting which is preceded by viral infection].
