Scared I might have autonomic neuropathy ontop of everything else...

I'm scared I have autonomic neuropathy. I've recently noticed that every time I eat I break out into a sweat all over my face and neck. I looked it up on the internet and it is a symptom. The reason i'm so scared is that I already have proliferative retinopathy and chronic kidney disease, and apparently if kidney disease and autonomic neuropathy are both present together it can result in sudden or early death. I've had a bad chest infection for a couple of weeks and have struggled to keep my blood glucose levels under control, so i'm already feeling fed up, and now this has got me really worried...I'm only 26 and have recently got engaged. I want to be fit and healthy for my wedding day which we're planning for 3 years time. All of this worry is ruining what should be one of the happiest times in my life. I was just wondering if anyone else has autonomic neuropathy and if so how long have you had it, and how severe is it? Does anyone suffer from this type of neuropathy alongside nephrothapy? I feel so alone and don't want to worry my fiance and my family xx
