			<description><![CDATA[ ASERNIP-s (Australian Safety and Efficacy Register..,) reviewed ETS once more. They still made no attempt to consider any other material than the one
published by the ETS surgeons - which makes me think, why on earth would somebody spend time, effort and money on something that was already done at least 6
times and came up with the exact same conclusion???!! They also have - the reviews that were done prior to this, including the one completed in 2001 by Centre
for Clinical Effectiveness,... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ ETS is a very effective way to treat hyperhidrosis and FB in the vast majority of the cases, <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">but a small group of patients

Extensive surgery or burning causes nerve scaring, which may behave like epilepsy of the autonomous nervous system and cause the well known (sic!) devastating
side effects.

			<description><![CDATA[ Maybe this post is only going to reaffirm what many of you already know but I feel compelled to share this conversation I recently had with a doctor (he is a
radiologist).
<br>
<br>
The conversation occurred in a casual context - we were not speaking to each other as doctor and patient but as two hikers sitting in a wilderness hut.
<br>
<br>
I knew the doctor was cold and tired and I noticed he was sitting with one hand curled up almost in a fist. I asked him if he had warmed up yet (he had... ]]></description>

streaming out my back and legs. It&#39;s like a nervous reaction and I can&#39;t control it.

Also I had a cold recently and i have never sweat so much in my life. You know you get cold sweats when you are unwell, well when I woke up I was dripping from
my back and legs. You would have thought I was sitting in a sauna.

&quot;Histadelia&quot; is a condition were one&#39;s level of histamine in the body is to high. Histamine works as a neurotransmitter to the central nervous
system, &quot;giving fuel&quot; to the sympathetic nerve system. It&#39;s also a reason for flushing, but people on other forums experienced a decrease also in
sweating, palpitation and likewise... ]]></description>

Dr. David Nielsen who performs a micro ets surgery. The more I read about the surgery and the experiences people have had, the more terrified I get about
having the so-called micro ets done on my son; also the more hopeless I feel about his situation. Anyone out there in this forum have something they can tell
me?
