I had a spinal cord injury at T2 about 12 years ago and immediately had severe hyperhidrosis above that level reaching to my scalp. After two years living with this I had the ETS surgery with removable clips. The problem areas were immediately resolved. After a few weeks I began to experience severe compensatory sweating on chest, back, and full length of arms. It became so bad that I went back to my surgeon 4 months after the initial surgery and asked to have the ETS clamps removed. It was apparently too late and the removal did not cause a return to the original state. Several years after the removal, I am now experiencing hyperhidrosis in both areas above and below T2 spinal injury. I have difficulty wearing business clothing and now work at home. I rarely go outside if over 75F. This surgery was probably the worst decision I have ever made and greatly affected my quality of life. -Perry

Does anyone have experience using iontophoresis on larger areas of the body such as chest and back? Any device brands that may be better suited for this purpose? Thanks, Perry
