I have ringing in my ears as well as blurry vision from the RSD. Those are in addition to a host of very strange symptoms that are also from my RSD (poor balance, dizziness/nausea, nose bleeds, headaches, etc). They are absolutely in my case CAUSED by the RSD. I now wear clonidine patches to control the vision problems as well as the dizziness and ringing in my ears. Check out this link:

Maybe print it out and bring it to your doctor. If they still aren't willing to help you then get a new doctor who actually cares about you and your health. Many doctors are not familiar with the other symptoms that come with RSD so that's not unusual but if you show them that they are related then they should be happy to be educated and to help you.

So glad you posted this! I have ear ringing everyday for two months now.

thank you i really appreciate this i really thought i was going crazy

I know for a fact that it affects these areas. I know some people who have been dx,d with Iritis(swelling of the eye) and the pupil changes into a star shape. she is being treated with injections into the eye itself but she is now considered legally blind. Plus I too have burning in my eyes and ringing in my ears. the ringing could be from increase in blood pressure with I am told all people with chronic pain have the burning is another proof of RSD presence in the eye. just like and appendage burns so would the eyes. this is in the basic nature of our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. mind you our organs are controlled by these systems also are most of out glands .IE constant sweating and edema, this is the fight or flight pattern as well as it controls adrenaline, as well a hormone,s and follicles , as well as calcium and so on and so on. this beast could attack everything. this is why so many symptoms are reported. hope this info helps. I suggest you google greys anatomy sympathetic nervous system. it won't tell you about this beast just about the system and what it does and how it works in the body.
