Autonomic neuropathy is a condition marked by damage to the nerves that regulate involuntary body functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, bladder control, and sweating. It can disrupt daily life significantly, leading to dizziness, digestive problems, urinary difficulties, and other complications. With the right treatment and support, many symptoms can be managed effectively and quality of life can be meaningfully improved.
Telehealth may not be appropriate for every medication or condition. Doctronic can help you understand your options and determine the appropriate next step.
Doctronic evaluates adults who have been diagnosed with or are experiencing symptoms consistent with autonomic neuropathy, including orthostatic hypotension, gastroparesis, neurogenic bladder, and related autonomic dysfunction. Our physicians review your full clinical picture to determine appropriate treatment options.
Because autonomic neuropathy often involves multiple organ systems, including cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and urological, your provider will consider your complete medical history, any underlying conditions such as diabetes or autoimmune disease, and your current medications before recommending a plan.
Autonomic neuropathy is a form of nerve damage that affects the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, sweating, and bladder control. It is most commonly caused by diabetes but can also result from autoimmune diseases, infections, or other conditions.
Common symptoms include dizziness or lightheadedness when standing (orthostatic hypotension), nausea, bloating, early fullness after eating (gastroparesis), urinary retention or incontinence, abnormal sweating, and sexual dysfunction. Symptoms vary depending on which nerves are affected.
Diagnosis typically involves a review of symptoms and medical history, a physical examination including blood pressure measurements lying and standing, and specialized tests such as a tilt-table test, heart rate variability testing, quantitative sudomotor axon reflex testing (QSART), or gastric emptying studies.
Diabetes is the leading cause. Other causes include autoimmune disorders such as Sjogren syndrome and lupus, Parkinson disease, certain cancers (paraneoplastic syndrome), amyloidosis, hereditary conditions, and some medications or toxins.
There is no universal cure, but treatment focuses on managing the underlying cause and controlling specific symptoms. In cases where an underlying condition such as diabetes is well controlled, progression may slow and some symptoms may improve.
Helpful strategies include increasing fluid and salt intake to support blood pressure, wearing compression garments, eating smaller and more frequent meals to ease gastroparesis, elevating the head of the bed, and avoiding prolonged standing. Your physician will tailor recommendations to your specific symptoms.
Doctronic uses AI-assisted evaluation to gather your symptoms and medical history, which is then reviewed by a licensed physician. The physician creates a personalized treatment plan, which may include prescription medications, lifestyle guidance, and referrals when needed.
