Scleroderma (Systemic Sclerosis): Anyone else?

Does this sound like autonomic neuropathy?

Post stem cell transplant for scleroderma, which involved high dose chemo/radiation and steroids, I have very limited ability to walk that so far was not diagnosed as why. As I start walking at a normal pace, my lower abdomen gets tense, dizziness, my blood pressure goes up, shortness of breath, confusion, tingling. I also have some muscle weakness in the arms and legs and muscle wasting. Pins and needles with tingling. My Systemic Sclerosis may be causing this, or possibly a complication post chemo/radiation - autoimmune neuropathy? Does this sound like Chronic Idiopathic Demyelinating Polyneuropathy CIDP?

Any insights will help. Thank you
