Yes, Autonomic Neuropathy is the kind of nerve damage that diabetics can get ( bladder and bowels ) just like neuropathy of the feet and legs. It can even do damage on the heart. Glad to say that I don't have autonomic neuropathy it was just the UTI made it feel that way. So, things are fine. What a relief!Oh! Your poor husband! My hubby works downtown at 7th St. and Buckeye and he said the jeep almost overheats because he has to stop at the lights alot and it causes the jeep's engine to get very hot. Has not over heated so far and hope it never does.
