Autonomic Neuropathy

Autonomic neuropathy is a condition that affects the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary body functions such as heart rate, digestion, and blood pressure. It can result from various causes, including diabetes, infections, or autoimmune diseases. Symptoms may include dizziness, irregular heartbeat, digestive issues, and difficulty regulating body temperature. Because the autonomic nervous system influences many essential functions, this condition can significantly impact daily life and overall well-being. Management often involves addressing the underlying cause and may include lifestyle changes, medications, and therapies to alleviate symptoms.
