Is inherited dysautonomia means familial dysautonomia

[Nemesis]

I have inherited dysautonomia, my mother and sister and my cousin have dysautonomia

My doctor wrote that I have generalised dysautonomia

Other doctor said because my dysautonomia is inherited and I lose feeling with pain and conscious temporarily after exposure to sun or heat I have familial dysautonomia

Thanks

Hi, nemesis, 

Please read about familial dysautonomia here,  http://www.familialdysautonomia.org/facts.htm from the familial dysautonomia foundation.

FD is a rare genetic disorder of the autonomic system that primarily affects people of Eastern European Jewish heritage. There is a blood test that can confirm if you have the gene,  and a Dr.  Would do a clinical exam to look for scoliosis and lack of tear production.  The other test to confirm is a lack of a response after receiving a histamine injection (normally redness and swelling would occur). Was this doctor a specialist that said you had this?

No, I didn't do that test I even don't think it exists in my region
