Hi Nese,
I've had this since 1992. It's rare but it seems like we've been picking
up in numbers here at this site. I'm from USA. Others from England and
Italy. What's your general location?
From what I've read, this is hereditary. You will notice some strange
sweat patterns.For instance, I don't sweat on my left arm. If you let it,
this thing could be a little unnerving. If one arm doesn't sweat and my left
knee will sometimes not jerk, what's to prevent my heart from just stopping.
The only thing that I can physically tell that has changed since 1992 is
that my eye dialation is not as large.
Good Luck with your searches! Have a good Holiday!
Margo
