Brief Answer:
Possible autonomic dysfunction?

Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir

I can certainly understand your concern.

You possibly seem to have symptoms of autonomic dysfunction and peripheral neuropathy.

For this, I advise you to take oral pills of Methylcobalamin 1500 mcg once a day for 3 months and Tab Pregabalin 75 mg once a day for 15 days .

Additionally, I advise you to get a complete thyroid profile and blood sugars for further assessment.

Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these pills to you.

Further management if any is largely based on test results.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
