    AbstractA woman with autonomic neuropathy after rubella infection is described. She had features of both sympathetic and parasympathetic impairment, the major problems being postural hypotension, abdominal and parotid pain, and fatigue. Autonomic dysfunction persisted 38 months after the rubella infection with minimal response to treatment. The literature relating to autonomic neuropathy is reviewed, and the similarities of this patient's condition to the Guillain-Barré syndrome are discussed.
