Guest guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 Hi dpscosmo, I do not know for sure, but that probablby refers to the fact that most MSA patients do not sweat from the neck down. It is probably because of autonomic failure. There is a test where they cover your body with some sort of powder and put you in a hot box, where you sweat, your body turns blue (I think ) and that shows them what they are looking for. Just my guess, Bill Werre Take care ============== dpscosmo17 wrote: >What is the " hot box test " ? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
