Hi, yes i have the same problem, i have had to use a walking stick for the past two months as my condition of c/s is getting alot worse and to keep my balance is now very hard.
Same problem here too, now with dizziness sometimes attached. Often go out without my walking stick and have actually fallen over in the street a couple of times over the years. Most embarrassing as no-one has ever offered to help me; they probably think I'm drunk.
i have had this problem for the past 16.5 yrs and it is getting worse. my mst recent symptoms are dizziness, and vision problems. when trying to walk i am stooped and cant straighten up , i have reduced my painkillers and what with the breakthrough pain i am stumped as to what to do. any ideas anyone. thanks

Hiya Chris, et al
I believe that CS can cause vascular problems,(dizzy spells, loss of balance) also myelopathy, which is secondary to CS. I have problems most days with my balance, however since taking Amytrilityne, the episodes have gotten less.
Could I ask you guys if you have had your blood pressure checked recently? I never had problems with my BP until I started with CS.
