I have that, the first symptoms started about a year and a half after I first noticed a numb spot on my right foot. My bladder barely works now and I have constipation even though I gorge on fiber and liquids.

Urinary symptoms are a bit harder to treat...have you seen a specialist in neurogenic bladder for help with this? |

I seem to be still hanging in with the digestive issues by eating a basically raw food diet with lots of OG sprout salads. Constipation is still intermittent but thank you for the suggestions. I'll check them out and present them to my GP for consideration. |

You are correct that neruogenic bladder is difficult to treat, but other autonomic conditions (affecting BP, heart rate, GI) have many treatment options. |

Do you have access to kiwifruit to include in your diet? - over here (NZ) it's a well known natural laxative and is often recommended by doctors for seniors with constipation issues. |

It's not always a problem and when it is pretty bad I fix it with an enema. I have found over and over again with many issues that the docs want to medicate, that I can find a fix of sorts using natural methods. |

Thanks. And what tests are there for autonomic? Can you die from autonomic?
