I've had a mild to moderate case of Meniere's for the past 20+ years, what it does is gives you some weird inner ear ringing/noise, and dizziness due to affecting the balance canals in your ear. but I was and am still able to listen to music no problem. if it gets really bad though, a person can lose their balance to the point they can't walk, or fall down. what happens is, your eyes take over for balance by sight perception. if a person with Meniere's tries to walk a straight line with their eyes closed, they stagger and almost fall over. a person with good inner ear balance can still walk a straight line with their eyes closed.
