<h1>Understanding Dysautonomia: It’s a Broad Term Covering Varying Autonomic Dysfunctions</h1>

The first thing to understand about dysautonomia is that the term ‘dysautonomia’ is a more general term includes various dysfunctions of the autonomic nervous system, which can include POTS, neural-mediated hypotension, pure autonomic failure and others.  Patients can have only one of these conditions or, more commonly, have several of these conditions at the same time. 

 

And, these conditions can be related to other medical conditions like as diabetes mellitus, kidney or  hypothalamus malfunctions causing electrolyte imbalances that lead to autonomic dysfunctions and so forth.  The point is that, if you have dysautonomia, one of the big keys to getting better is to see a specialist that can point out which of the other conditions under dysautonomia are present. Getting more specific as to what part of the autonomic nervous system is malfunctioning can lead much more quickly to getting to the bottom of what is really causing the problems. And that means you’re a lot closer to doing the right things and getting better, instead of just generally being treated for dysautonomia. 

It’s a bit like saying there’s something wrong with fluid system in a car—you really need to know if it’s the radiator, water pump, a thermostat, or something electrical, etc to be able to fix or at least improve the problem.  So, your best bet is to look for a dysautonomia doctor that can help you get specific as to whether it’s POTS or some other condition under the umbrella of dysautonomia--and come up with a specific treatment plan that works.
