A member asked:
Is there a way to determine if i am qualified for an "endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy" surgery without physical examination?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sympathectomy: The short answer is no. This is not a minor procedure. You must discuss the benefits vs. the risks with your surgeon. The main questions are what is it being considered for and what are the chances it will correct your symptoms.
