I have autonomic neuropathy and it takes a while to learn to live with it. Mine is not diabetic. I don't think you can compare morbidity and mortality to diabetic autonomic neuropathy, because diabetes causes overlay of other problems that you may not experience in non-diabetic AN. There is no real marker for autoimmune AN, which is what they feel mine is. Mine is due to or part of connective tissue disease which is 'seronegative' Sjogrens or some yet unnamed connective tissue disease. My AN has remained fairly constant now for several years, actually, has improved with IVIG.

Dysautonomia is used as an interchangeable term by some medical people. There are some good sites on dysautonomia. The big thing about autonomic neuropathy or dysautonomia is unpredictability where there should be predictability


QT lengthening can be a side effect of quite a few drugs. QT lengthening needs to be explored by a cardiologist.
