I am now 83 and feeling dreadful with low blood pressure because of the two operations I had at age 25. My sympathectomies were because of Hyperhydrosis. How can I get a higher blood pressure and feel better, please? |

Dear Mary Kirk Side effects of sympathectomy may include decreased blood pressure while standing, which may cause fainting. After sympathectomy in men, semen is sometimes ejaculated into the bladder, possibly impairing fertility. After a sympathectomy is performed by inserting an endoscope in the chest cavity, some persons may experience chest pain with deep breathing. This problem usually disappears within few months. If the low blood pressure still persist you should contact some physician who will evaluate you thoroughly and give you proper advice with some medicine. Your overall status should be studied including all the hormone and vitamins level. With regards M.K. Gupta |
