Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy surgery was performed on me in 2002 for hyperhidrosis.in 2003 I became arthritic, developed Raynauds, lost thyroid-gained too much weight, extreme pain in arms from shoulders to fingertips from brachial plexus injury, vertigo, nausea, fatigue, a weird rash on my neck, pits in my nails, insomnia, restless leg syndrome, emotional distress, mental fogginess, and constant headache. I was not informed of any of these side effects prior to surgery.
I have now read reports comparing this surgery to Lobotomy, and side effects mimic fibromyalgia. My heart races almost constantly? As the flight-or fight syndrome is no longer working. I recently discovered via my medical records that i have an unusual lung condition that sometimes prevents the surgery being done.instead of canceling surgery—Dr went ahead and cut my nerves (instead of clamping). Never told me about my lung—or being cut.
Numerous Internet forums report all of us feel nothing emotionally anymore? As if we were unplugged. Men are experiencing erectile/ejaculatory problems and incontinence. This surgery is now banned in sweden and partially in taiwan. Dr's not only inflate their success* numbers, but they wont study anyone after 3 years. This is when many symptoms appear.in texas, we have 2 years to sue for malpractice.By the time we find out we are destroyed... We cant sue.
Here's another study showing the small follow-up dates..

These dr's know full well what they are concealing from us. This surgery isnt new. And has been used in the past for emotional/mental disorders. (possibly still performed by dr telantra at privatix clinic)
I am 38 years old and I was a disc-jockey/Journalist for KACC radio in Alvin texas... I am now on Government payments for disability. I can never work again. I can never have children. I can never be normal again.
