Default Neurogenic bladder

Happy Holidays Everyone!

I have had small fiber peripheral neuropathy (idiopathic)in my feet, ankles and hands for several years. For me, the pain has been terrible and has been the focus of my medical treatment.

Now I have been diagnosed with neurogenic bladder. When my urologist gave me the test results, he said it was associated with my neuropathy. (Actually, once he mentioned self-catheterization [sp], I didn't catch everything he said afterward.) When I started reading about my wonderful new dx, it looked to me that a neurogenic bladder belonged with autonomic neuropathy, not a sensory small fiber neuropathy.
Can a person have 2 different types of neuropathy? Or am I heading down the wrong path?

Thanks in advance,
nancy-h
