I can't believe that there are others out there that are suffering like i am! Antidepressants have saved my life- but the prominant side-effect for me is SWEATING. After consulting my PCP, an endocronolist, a thoraic seurgon, a psychitrist and psychologist -- all agreed that I should have the procedure Endoscoptic Thoracic Syncoptemy and, accordingly, sent detailed letters to my insurance carrier (Health Care Plan). Well, guess what? In typical HMO fashion they have declined the procdure as medically unecessary (and, of course, there decision is not reviewable!)
