Thanks for that information. I'm currently researching POTS to learn more, but don't find anywhere that it is a form of neuropathy. I believe you, though... but do you have a website or something that says so? I want to show it to my doctor.
I am becoming more concerned because I've been told (and read) that autonomic neuropathy can affect other organs in time and can be fatal. Is that true? I am worried.
I was told by the neurologist at Mayo that I had large fiber neuropathy, though the diagnosis on paper says that I have small fiber neuropathy--and now this suggests autonomic neuropathy? I am so confused!

My name is Sarah and I am 25 years old. I have a lot of chronic health problems. Peripheral neuropathy and POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) keep me bedridden the majority of the time. I also struggle with degenerative disc disease, disc desiccation, spondylolisthesis, arthritis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance, allergies, sound sensitivities, and other health problems.
