Talk:Compensatory hyperhidrosis

ETS bias
This article is focused too tightly on the perceived horrors of endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy. CH is not the exclusive domain of those ETS patients that develop it. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:31, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

The autonomic neuropathy presenting as abnormal "compensatory" or reflex sweating occurs also following spinal cord injury, stroke, Diabetes Mellitus, RSD and many more - which in itself should be a food for thought when it comes to an elective surgical procedure. I have deleted the line about CS disappearing after a few months following sympathectomy. That is just pure fiction and should have no place on wiki as it can not be substantiated by empirical evidence. "No statistically significant association between the CS with age, family history, type of HH and extent of TS" http://ejcts.oxfordjournals.org/content/34/3/514.full and Thoracoscopic sympathectomy is effective in the treatment of hyperhydrosis. However compensatory sweating seems unavoidable and infrequently improves with time. Patients need to be carefully counselled before committing to surgery.
