"It's wonderful! I'm not embarrassed to shake hands or hold hands any more. My hands aren't constantly freezing! I'm discovering new things daily...I can workout without having to dry my hands multiple times, can do my hair and makeup with dry hands, can write on paper without leaving wet spots....and many many more things."55 yr old woman experienced a significant life changing event following Micro ETS:
To Dr. David H. Nielson,
Hello, it's me, Regina, and I'm here to thank you for changing my life. I remember the day when my family saw a commercial of you on TV. It said that there was a surgery that can remove the problem of sweaty palms. I was so happy when I saw it. I begged my parents to take me to San Antonio to get the surgery done on me. When we finally made the appointment, I was excited. My sweaty palms have affected my life for years. I enjoyed drawing, but my sweaty hands would smear the led across the page and it would leave the page all soggy. Every time I would meet someone new, I would avoid shaking their hands, or I would try to get the sweat off by rubbing my hands on my pants. My friends would high-five me and they would always say, "Your hands are sweaty," and they would get the sweat off by rubbing their hand on their pants. That would really lower my self-esteem. I would get so mad when I struggled to play clarinet since my fingers would slip off the keys because of my sweat. I always dreamed of the day when my sweaty palms problem would disappear. Lets skip to January of this year. I was so nervous that morning of the surgery, but I knew that I wanted my problem to go away. So you, Dr. Nielson, preformed the surgery on me. In an instant, my problem was gone. I cried. I was overcome with joy that I was finally normal. You changed my entire life. Now I can high-five someone without them saying that my hands are sweaty, now I can dance with a guy in prom (highly unlikely, but that's not the point) and I can play my clarinet like a boss. Sorry this thank you email was sent to you months after the surgery, but still, thank you Dr. Nielson, for changing my life completely. I am happier and more comfortable with who I am. Once again, I can't thank you enough, you affected my life in a positive way and I will never forget when you changed my life back in January.
May God bless you, Regina
How life changed after ETS (report is 6 months following Micro ETS): "Wow what a difference. I don't sweat through gloves or my makeup anymore. My blushing was reduced by about 50%, but the hand sweating is completely gone. I am no longer embarrassed to shake someone's hand."
