Anhidrosis?

Recommended Posts

I just had a TST (thermoregulatory sweat test) that showed nearly global anhidrosis.  My face and neck sweat rather profusely and my hands enough to turn the powder purple.  The rest of me---not a thing after almost 40 minutes at 120 F.  I was pretty shocked by this, as was my doctor.  Just wondering if anyone else has had similarly dysfunctional results from this test and what they  led you (and your doctors) to conclude.  I will of course be consulting with mine to see what he thinks, but in the meantime, I am trying to understand the implications more clearly.

Further, and perhaps irrelevantly, I have had multiple neck issues and am wondering if the sweat patterns are related to ganglionic lesions somewhere in my neck....  Oh...and I have currently  been diagnosed with POTS and NMS.

Thanks to anyone who has anything to contribute to my understanding.
