mixed or misunderstood signals from the brain to the body functions due to the nerve damage
John,
I understand that. But,the lesion being thoracic (chest) means I should only be affected below that level-not anywhere above it. The numbness is still from that level (T4) down,with a few areas of extreme sensitivity scattered around.That's what confused them and me about the sweating.
15 yrs later and still no explanation.

kinda odd ,,,,when i flew to fort knox KY i had to fly to PA to catch that flight.
if i had missed the PA connection i would not have made it to fort knox.
i think the brain works the same way. if theres a connection problem anywhere then it will send signals or block signals trying to resolve the problem and if it cant then it does all kinds of wierd stuff.
sometimes i wish mine would stop trying and just turn the lights out and go to sleep but that would be a stroke ,,thats a bad thought.

Hi Everyone,
I got tm at the thoracic level (T4-5),but when I perspire on my face,one side gets red and moist,the other stays pale and dry. No one has ever had an explanation for this.A couple of docs even suggested that maybe I always had this and just noticed it after tm!
