Heat intolerance
I am still searching for answers and interested to know if any of our members who have autonomic neuropathy, have the symptom of heat intolerance? I have been diagnosed with large fibre polyneuropathy, but I think I may also have autonomic neuropathy?
For many years I suffered from urinary retention and three years ago had to have a permanent indwelling catheter because of this. There was never a diagnosis for the retention, but now I am wondering if it is caused by autonomic neuropathy, as I have read that this can affect the bladder as well as other organs.
I have noticed that I am more sensitive to heat than anyone else I know and it doesn't feel "normal" to be the odd one out. Because of this, I am trying to find out if there is a possible nerve connection to do with the heat sensitivity? I know that its not caused by the menopause because I am now in my seventies and have had this problem since my forties. If anyone can shine a light on this I would appreciate it very much and any comments would be very welcome.
Thanks for reading this, Pinksweetpea
