How Many Vegan Patients Have Autonomic Neuropathy Inducing Urinary Frequency And Night Sweats?
What is the incidence of autonomic neuropathy inducing urinary frequency and night sweats in vegan patients. No other clear symptoms, no SACD. I am strongly suspecting a low B12 role in a patient that I have with these symptoms, age 20, active otherwise fit, borderline B12.
