What are the symptoms of autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy?

Symptoms of AAG can vary. You may have:

  • Constipation.
  • Dilated pupils (Adie’s pupils).
  • Dry mouth or dry eyes.
  • Fainting (syncope).
  • Low blood pressure when you move to stand (neurogenic orthostatic hypotension).
  • Urinary retention.

About 2 in 3 people with AAG have high levels of antibodies called ganglionic acetylcholine receptor antibodies (g-AChR antibodies). Researchers think that your g-AChR antibody levels correlate to how severe your symptoms are.
