Hi its Alison here,

Many thanks for your reply.
I am sorry that you are dealing with this horrible illness

We have spoken to many people who suffer from RSD that have severe balance problems, I understand that a side effect of the Block I had is balance problems. My mom is going to see my PM doctor on Wednesday whilst I have my physiotherapy session so she will discuss it with him then. I am hoping to get a referal to another PM doctor because I am sick of my doctor not believing my balance problem - why does he think that I would make it up when all I want to do is get better??

No, I can not stand or walk without crutches, I need 2 elbow crutches and my mom standing behind me to catch me when I fall

Yes I do get headaches with RSD, I think that the medication causes them and also the pain. I still get headaches even though I am on Tramadol and Lyrica. I also get constipation (yes I know discusting) and belly aches.

I hope you are feeling better
Many thanks for your help
Alison
