Miradry. Can it cause damage to nerves and lymph nodes?

August 10, 2015
Asked By:d. crockett in Bayside, NY

An ad cites the safety of MiraDry on the basis that the microwaves only attack water and since the sweat glands have water and not the nerves and lymph nodes, only the sweat glands are affected. Hello? I'm sure nerves and lymph nodes are much more dense than sweat glands, still if they were totally without water they would be dessicated, clumps of dried dust. That dr.'s statement did give me pause. Again, if something sounds too good to be true .... There must be some damage to nerves and nodes.
