Welcome @jart. Type 2 diabetes is the most common cause of autonomic neuropathy. When poorly controlled, the diabetes increases the risk of autonomic neuropathy and other nerve damage.

Jart, you'll notice that I moved your message to this existing discussion about AN.

I did this so you can connect with other members like @runnergirl @juanito @sunnyflower and many others.

Typically people with AN are in the care of neurology. See more here: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/autonomic-neuropathy/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20369836
Is your loved one able to control his diabetes? Is he currently in the care of a neurologist?
