    Abstract
    Acute pandysautonomia is a rare disorder characterized by autonomic failure affecting sympathetic, parasympathetic, and enteric functions. We present a case of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) with severe pandysautonomia in a young, otherwise healthy, female who presented with gastrointestinal symptoms and sensory demyelinating polyneuropathy, which progressively worsened and subsequently developed bladder dysfunction and orthostatic hypotension.

    We discuss the challenges with diagnostic workup as well as the challenges we encountered as part of the management.

    How 'rare' is this with post-infectious syndromes?
