I have googled alot of this info as well, sounds scary. He has said he wants to do the sympathectamy as well because my sympathetic nerve system is also being affected. This surgeon only does surgery on 15% of the patients that come to see him, (so he is conservative in that manor, he will not just cut open anyone for the $$ like some other drs) and according to him 30% that he does surgery on require the sympathectomy as well. I happen to fit that category, but that is the short version. He has me booked for a nerve block first to see the results.
thanks for your response
cheers
