Answer:

“So there are no tests that help confirm your diagnosis. The tests help you distinguish other conditions. So let’s say if you’re worried about Meniere’s disease, then you do the audiograms that look for the unilateral, low frequency, sensorineural hearing loss. But there is no single test that will help diagnose vestibular migraine. It is a clinical diagnosis pretty much like Triple-P-D, MdDS. You need to take a good history, do an exam, make sure you don’t have any other problems before you make the diagnosis of vestibular migraine.”
