Hi Lori, WOW!!!!!
That's it......you had exactly what I have! Right down to the sweating on just one side of my body! What I forgot to say.........is that I have a pressure sore (3 months now) that is healing well....on my right leg...the same side I sweat. One side of my forehead would be dripping soaking wet while the other is bone dry. It seems.....I have to wait until it heals.....before the 2ndary symptoms subside. Did you have any skin itching? Thanks so much. I hope you're going to the game tomorrow! pj ----- Original Message ----- From: Lori Michaelson To: Paul Jacobson ; [email protected] Sent: Friday, February 01, 2008 5:04 PM Subject: Re: Weird condition That happened to me quite recently and it lasted for several months. I thought for sure that t had to be one of two things... my spine or my hemorrhoids. Come to find out... there was a tiny pressure sore just underneath my right foot on the right side (near my pinky toe) but not visible to either my home health aide (even when she was washing my feet) or my husband who can usually see and keeps an eye on me for skin problems all the time. It was just a quite hidden location so it was overlooked. I knew something was wrong but I had no idea what it could be. And it would do just what you said. Sometimes it would only last for five minutes and I would have the terrible clammy sweats on the left side of my body up by my shoulder blade and back-- and the goosebumps. Other times it would last for an hour. And some days it did not happen at all. Crazy! One would think that if it hurt... it would get worse during the day. But nope... it got better as the day wore on. Nuts! Sometimes it's the least thing you would expect so I have no idea what to tell you since it took us months and someone to sit in the very place where they could see my little pressure sore directly. So I had to go without my right shoe for a couple of months or more and all the symptoms went away.

It can last from a minute to a few hours. Oh......my skin arms/chest/shoulders/face itches badly at times. I'm a train wreck. THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT! pj
