Sfn and heart rate and oxygen levels

Hello @luckymom77, I don't think you are alone. There is another discussion that might be helpful to read what others have shared.
-- Autonomic neuropathy - blood pressure and heart rate?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/autonomic-neuropathy-3/

I have had two one month holter monitor test done. I have cardiac autonomic neuropathy. My heart beats too fast or too slow( tachycardia/bradycardia). My blood pressure either too high or too low.
The cardiologist put me on blood pressure at medication took it two days pressure dropped 90/50. Stopped meds it went back to normal. When you have neuropathy it affects the autonomic nervous system. Bladder kidneys heart eyes and so for they have linked my seizures to my neuropathy.
Ask your neurologist to test you for autonomic neuropathy. I was diagnosed with cardiac autonomic neuropathy by my cardiologist and electrophsiologist by my one month holter monitor test. Just an fyi medication for me for the arrhythmias did not work. One year later the one month holter monitor test showed the arrhythmias increased over the year I was on metoprolol succinate 50 mgs three times a day. Sometimes you pass out from dizziness.

Thanks for the reply. I went to the new cardiologist today. I’ve never seen her or any other cardiologist before and she acted like my sfn has no bearing on what’s happening during the last couple of months. She spent 10 minutes with me and just disregarded what I had to say and said my light headedness and feeling like I’m going to pass out when I stand up too fast or look up too fast. She didn’t seem to give a shiy about what I had to say and just said keep taking the Meds and I’ll schedule an ekg.

Find a new cardiologist that knows about cardiac autonomic neuropathy call around. My first cardiologist knew nothing I spoke to the office manager that did and she referred me to a different doctor in the practice and he has been great.
