I had my Miradry procedure 3 days ago and regarding the sweating, I am pretty satisfied with the results. However, now that the effects of anaesthesia are gone, I am really worried that my left brachial plexus is damaged, and particularly my left median nerve, since I have a persistent numbness (analgesia + paralysis) in my thumb (90% affected), forefinger (80%) and middle finger (50%).
