Hi Andy…great topic you’ve brought up. The mental aspect of this is sometimes as bad as the physical. While we delineate the physical vs the mental…it’s important to realize the mental causes the physical symptoms to be that much worse.
I too have neuropathy causing some numbness, a lot of fatigue, tremors in my hands, poor balance …and also told I have autonomic as well.
I thru waves of depressive feelings and then other times not so bad. I don’t really have a good way of dealing with it…other than going for walks…which thankfully I can still do although it’s getting harder all the time. Like you , a big concern for me is the future…I’m 62 now.
I’m curious what your symptoms are and how close they are to mine? Thank you for bringing up the topic.
Steve

With our without meds (lol) my symptoms come and go affecting every part of my mental and physical body, sight, hearing, swallowing, cramps, numbness, rapid heart rate, sexual function, balence……MENTAL stress and fog. Theses symptoms take turns go and come I am still with meds able go mask most or suppress of them(not the darkness)
