bobby , i think gastrointestinal autonomic neuropathy is a type of diabetic gastropathy.
The term diabetic gastropathy refers to a number of neuromuscular dysfunctions of the stomach in patients with diabetes mellitus, including contractile and electrical abnormalities. These abnormalities may consist of gastric dysrhythmias, gastroparesis ( autonomic,more specifically vagal neuropathy) , antral hypomotility and dilation, antroduodenal coordination, and gastric tone dysfunction.
hope that helps.good luck.
