Thanks DADofPotsSon for sharing your experience. The problem with my brother is he will take a ton of medications but always unwilling to give up overeating. The type II in our family is also heredity type (from Grandpa). My granddad had some other issues, but we are not sure if he had neuro muscular diseases or not. But today I am surely going to show your reply to my brother. If it awakens some sense into him to exercise a bit and control his diet.

My brother has type 2 diabetes. His average blood sugar level is 14.4 for the past couple of months. Let alone exercise, his heart rate goes sky high after a bit work out. It is happening for the past 3 or 4 days. Walking doesn't affect the situation but whenever he is climbing staircases the condition becomes worse. Sometimes he can't even breathe easily after climbing just two stories. His blood pressure is fluctuating between 130/85 and 140/90.
Should I go for diagnosis of dysautonomia immediately? He is already in a lot of trouble. I don't want to see him suffer one more condition.

Thanks yogini for for your reassuring insight. I have been studying a bit about dysautnomia. Yesterday I took him to have a gym membership. Now, I have to monitor regularly about his progress. Sometimes his actions make me forget who is the elder between us.
